What it is
Natural lemon oil is a fragrant liquid extracted from the peel of lemons. It is produced by cold-pressing the lemon peel to release the essential oils, which contain many of the fruit's characteristic flavor and aroma compounds.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add natural lemon oil to provide a bright, fresh lemon flavor and aroma to foods. It is commonly found in baked goods like cookies and cakes, candies, sauces, dressings, and beverages.
Health notes
In the U.S., natural lemon oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a flavoring. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have also evaluated flavorings, and they are generally considered safe at levels used in food. No significant health concerns are associated with consuming natural lemon oil at typical dietary levels.
Allergen info
Natural lemon oil is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
