What it is
Lavender is a fragrant herb from the Lamiaceae family, native to the Mediterranean region. It is known for its purple flowers and distinct aroma. The flowers and oil are used in various applications, including culinary uses, aromatherapy, and cosmetics.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use lavender flowers and extract as a flavoring agent in foods and beverages. Its floral and slightly sweet notes complement a variety of products, including baked goods, teas, chocolates, and dairy products. It is also sometimes used for its aromatic properties in food presentation.
Health notes
Lavender is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food flavoring. Scientific bodies like the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated lavender preparations. While generally considered safe in typical food amounts, high concentrations of lavender oil can cause adverse effects. Research into the specific health effects of consuming lavender in food is ongoing.
Allergen info
Lavender is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
