What it is

Lemon juice with added lemon oil is a flavoring ingredient made from lemons. It combines the tartness of lemon juice with the concentrated aroma of lemon oil, which is extracted from the peel of the fruit. This blend aims to provide a more intense and consistent lemon flavor than juice alone.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add this ingredient to enhance the citrus flavor in a variety of foods. It is frequently found in baked goods like cakes, cupcakes, and snack cakes, as well as in icings and fillings. Its bright, fresh taste makes it a popular choice for desserts and confections.

Health notes

International bodies like JECFA have evaluated flavoring substances, and while specific evaluations for this blend may vary, they are typically considered safe when used as intended. No significant health concerns are associated with typical consumption levels.
