What it is

Spice extracts are concentrated flavor compounds derived from spices. They are produced by using solvents like water, alcohol, or oil to extract the aromatic and flavorful components from dried spices. This process captures the essence of the spice in a more potent and stable form.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add spice extracts to enhance or impart specific flavors in a wide variety of foods. They are used in baked goods, beverages, sauces, meats, and snacks to provide a consistent and intense taste profile. Their concentrated nature makes them efficient for flavoring.

Health notes

Spice extracts are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as flavoring agents. Regulatory bodies like the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated many individual spice compounds. At typical consumption levels, they are not associated with adverse health effects. Research into specific compounds within spices continues, but no widespread health concerns are linked to the use of spice extracts in food.

Allergen info

Spice extracts are not derived from any of the 9 major allergens. They do not contain gluten.
