Organic Strawberry Extract

Organic strawberry extract is a concentrated flavoring derived from organic strawberries. It is produced by extracting the aromatic compounds and flavor components from the fruit, often using solvents or other methods, and then concentrating this liquid.

Manufacturers add organic strawberry extract to impart a natural strawberry flavor to foods. It is commonly found in products like yogurt, meal replacement supplements, and snack bars where a distinct fruit taste is desired.

Organic strawberry extract is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a flavoring. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated flavoring substances, but specific evaluations for organic strawberry extract are not always detailed separately. At typical consumption levels, it is not associated with adverse health effects.
