LorAnn Lemon Oil SS, Natural Flavor, 1 ounce

We use this to provide the flavor for artificial lemon juice made with citric, malic and ascorbic arid. It holds for weeks and is used to flavor the large quantities of water our doctors say we need to drink. 20 drops flavors 1 liter of fake juice. 4 tsp fake juice per liter of water (sweeten to taste) kept in a pump bottle in the fridge.

It is quite a strong flavor, so start with less than is required in a recipe until you get the right taste.

Lorain oils and products are best for your baking needs,whether you are a home baker or professional baker..

The lemon is perfect for flavoring foods. I discovered that Amazon has the best price for this product. Taste is everything and this is great.

I have only used the lemon oil for flavoring in blueberry muffins and bread but it can be used for candles, frostings etc. It's stronger than extract and therefore infuses a higher concentration of lemon flavor using less product. It also has a long shelf life. I've also purchased their orange oil to use in orange cranberry nut muffins. Delicious!! After much searching, I was disappointed to find that most drug stores or health food stores in my area do not carry this product and the clerks hadn't even heard of it. That's too bad. If People knew how much these oils (that are edible) infuse a better concentration of flavor, in baked goods particularly, it would fly off the shelves.

I purchased this lemon oil because it is food grade and wanted to add a drop or two to drinking water but found the oiliness too unpleasant to do this ritual daily. I rather squeeze lemon juice into the water as something that I am better able to tolerate. However, I have found this oil pair well with baking soda for a clean, refreshing toothpaste substitute and with coconut oil as a moisturizer. Straight onto the skin, this is unpleasant to use (my mistake) and it irritated my skin. However, mixed with olive, coconut, almond oils, it goes well in a refreshing salad or as a skin moisturizer. The best part about it, is because it is concentrated lemon oil, that only a drop or two are needed to do more with a lot less of this product. When I am ready to use it to bake lemon squares I'll update on its contribution as a consumable in other forms.

I used it to cook with

A nice, natural smell and taste compared with the usual in-store brand of "extract" which smells more like alcohol than lemon. A tip for dispensing it to your recipe mix without losing a large amount to the side of the bottle, your fingers and the counter: use a straw to transfer it from the bottle to the recipe bowl--just dip it in the bottle, close off the other end with a finger and transfer it to the bowl. No mess and no lost ingredient.

The smell of this oil is fantastic 👌! I make a tea with this lemon oil and it is amazing!

Product comes sealed, with "best before date" set to two years from now. Shipping is always super fast from seller. Love using Lorann oils for making homemade treats. Will buy again.

Love it in my cake batter recipes.

I bought this to flavour olive oil because I was tired of paying high prices for 1% lemon oil + 99% olive oil! So I've flavoured my own olive oil and its great! It can be a little bitter if you use too much, so be careful, but otherwise it is what it says super-strength lemon oil!

Happy with this product. It adds a nice lemony flavour and is completely natural.
