What it is

Natural raspberry flavor is a flavoring substance derived from real raspberries. It is created by extracting flavor compounds from the fruit through processes like distillation or solvent extraction, and then often concentrating or blending these extracts.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add natural raspberry flavor to foods and beverages to impart a raspberry taste without using the actual fruit. It is commonly found in drinks like teas and juices, as well as in snacks such as popcorn and peanuts, and condiments like salad dressings.

Health notes

Natural raspberry flavor is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated flavoring substances, and these are typically considered safe at the levels used in food. There are no widespread health controversies associated with natural raspberry flavor when consumed in typical amounts.

Allergen info

Natural raspberry flavor is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
