What it is
Organic Pumpkin Concentrate is made from organic pumpkins. The pumpkins are typically cooked, pureed, and then concentrated to remove water, intensifying the pumpkin flavor and color. This process results in a more potent ingredient than raw pumpkin.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use organic pumpkin concentrate to add natural pumpkin flavor, color, and some nutritional value to foods. It is often found in confectionery products like jelly beans and fruit snacks, as well as baked goods and beverages seeking a natural pumpkin taste.
Health notes
Organic Pumpkin Concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA as a food ingredient. It is a source of vitamins and minerals found in pumpkins. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated food ingredients, but specific evaluations for this concentrate are not widely publicized. At typical consumption levels, it is not associated with adverse health effects.
Allergen info
Not a major allergen. Pumpkin is not one of the nine FDA major food allergens. It does not contain gluten.
