Orange Base

Orange Base is a flavoring ingredient that gives foods an orange taste and aroma. It is typically made from natural or artificial flavorings, often including citrus oils and other compounds to mimic the flavor of oranges. The exact composition can vary depending on the manufacturer.

Manufacturers use Orange Base to add a distinct orange flavor to a wide variety of products. It is commonly found in ice cream, frozen yogurt, beverages, baked goods, and sauces like ketchup and mustard where a fruity or tangy note is desired.

Orange Base is generally considered safe for consumption as part of food flavoring. The FDA regulates flavorings, and ingredients used are typically reviewed for safety. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated many flavoring substances. Evidence regarding specific health effects at typical consumption levels is limited, as it is used in small amounts primarily for taste.
