What it is

Organic orange oil is a natural oil extracted from the peel of organic oranges. It is produced through methods like cold-pressing or steam distillation, capturing the aromatic compounds responsible for the fruit's scent and flavor. This oil is valued for its intense, fresh orange aroma and taste.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use organic orange oil primarily as a flavoring agent to impart a natural citrus taste and aroma. It is commonly found in baked goods, confectionery, beverages, and dairy products. Its concentrated flavor allows for effective use in small quantities.

Health notes

In the U.S., organic orange oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a flavoring. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated flavoring substances, and orange oil is considered safe for consumption at typical levels. There is no widespread controversy regarding its use in food.

Allergen info

Organic orange oil is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
