Nielsen-Massey Food Flavour – 60ml Almond Extract

Made with the purest oil of bitter almond to deliver the best results when it comes to flavour and quality, Nielsen-Massey’s exquisite Almond Extract is an ideal flavour complement for vanilla, chocolate, maple or butterscotch. This authentically nutty store-cupboard staple is perfect for using in Bakewell tarts or frangipane, but is also gorgeous when added to cakes, pastries and fruit dishes. It’s a pure, concentrated extract with deep, complex flavours that will give your sweet treats the edge. Try pairing it with peaches, pistachios or cherries for something deliciously different.

For thousands of years, gourmands have prized almond extract for its sumptuous, full-bodies flavour. It’s said that the Egyptians used to flavour their breads with almond oils whilst Cleopatra was so enamoured with almonds that she regularly bathed in their milk. More recently, since the 1500s almonds have become a mainstay ingredient in cookies, jams, cakes and liqueurs, and they continue to be a widely used and popular ingredient to this day.

As well as a baking addition, almond extract can be used in fruit dishes, salad dressings and sauces, to flavour drinks and even to be added to pumpkin or banana breads to increase the depth of flavour.
