What it is

Natural orange extract is made by extracting flavor compounds from the peel of oranges. This process typically uses solvents or steam distillation to capture the volatile oils that give oranges their characteristic aroma and taste.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add natural orange extract to provide or enhance citrus flavor in foods and beverages. It is commonly found in baked goods, candies, dairy products, and especially in beverages where it offers a natural-tasting orange profile.

Health notes

In the U.S., natural orange extract is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for its intended use as a flavoring. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have also evaluated flavoring substances, and natural extracts are typically considered safe when consumed in amounts found in food. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption levels.

Allergen info

Natural orange extract is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
