Coffea Arabica Fruit Extract

Coffea Arabica Fruit Extract comes from the fruit of the Arabica coffee plant, native to Ethiopia. The extract is typically made by processing the coffee cherry, which is the fruit that encloses the coffee bean.

This extract is primarily used to add a coffee-like flavor to foods and beverages. It can also contribute to the color and aroma of products. It is often found in energy drinks, sodas, and confectionery.

The FDA lists Coffea Arabica Fruit Extract as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for its intended use in food. It contains caffeine, which is a stimulant. JECFA has evaluated caffeine and established an acceptable daily intake. Some individuals may be sensitive to caffeine, experiencing effects like jitteriness or sleep disturbances, especially at higher intakes.
