What it is

Dried lemon juice is made from the juice of lemons that has been dehydrated to remove most of its water content. This process concentrates the flavor and extends the shelf life of the juice. It is often produced by spray drying or freeze drying.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add dried lemon juice to provide a tart, citrus flavor to foods and beverages. It is used in dry mixes like cake mixes, powdered beverages, and spice blends. It can also be found in chewing gum, candies, and baked goods where a concentrated lemon taste is desired.

Health notes

Dried lemon juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of vitamin C, though the amount can vary depending on processing. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated lemon juice and its components. At typical consumption levels found in food, it is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Dried lemon juice is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
