Fresh Mango Flavour Oil is an oil-soluble flavouring concentrate that adds a ripe, tropical mango note to cakes, candies, ice creams, chocolates and other treats. A few drops go a long way, so you stir it in gently and taste as you go rather than pouring freely. Azlok's version is alcohol-free, vegan and GMO-free, which makes it easy to work into most home and small-batch recipes.
What is Fresh Mango Flavour Oil?
This is a food-grade flavouring oil, not an essential oil and not fresh mango pulp. It is made using edible vegetable oil along with permitted nature-identical and flavouring substances, so the mango character is consistent from bottle to bottle. Because it is oil-soluble, it blends best into fat-rich mixes like batters, chocolate, buttercream and ice cream bases. The colour is a light yellow and the INCI name listed is Mangifera Indica Extract Oil.
Where you can use it
- Cakes and pastries — fold into sponge batter, mango-flavoured cupcakes or a swiss roll filling.
- Candies and jellies — hard-boiled sweets, gummies and fruit jellies.
- Ice creams and kulfi — a clean mango note without watering down the mix.
- Dark and milk chocolate — since it is oil-based, it works well in chocolate where water-based flavours would seize the mixture.
- Buttercream, ganache and mousse — the fat carries the flavour smoothly.
How to use it correctly
Start small. Add a few drops, mix thoroughly, taste, and only then decide if you want more. Flavour oils are concentrated, and it is far easier to add than to fix an over-flavoured batch.
- Measure your base mixture as usual.
- Add the flavour oil towards the end of mixing so it distributes evenly.
- Stir gently but fully so there are no concentrated pockets.
- For chocolate, warm the chocolate to working temperature first, then stir the oil in.
One practical tip from the product notes: don't keep the food item too watery when adding this flavouring. Excess water can dilute and carry away some of the mango character, so you get a weaker result. In oil- or fat-based recipes this isn't a problem.
Safety notes worth reading
Treat this as a food additive, not a drink or a snack.
- Do not consume it directly. It is meant to be used inside food items only, in small quantities.
- Keep the bottle out of the reach of children.
- Avoid direct contact with the eyes; if it splashes, rinse with plenty of water.
- Use only food-grade utensils and clean, dry measuring tools.
Buying and storage
Azlok offers Fresh Mango Flavour Oil starting at ₹349, with pack sizes from a handy 100 GM bottle up to bulk 25 KG for small businesses and commercial kitchens. If you are testing recipes, the smaller size is the sensible place to start.
Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the cap tightly closed between uses to protect the aroma. Stored well, the shelf life is around two years. Always check the strength of your current batch before scaling a recipe up, since a fresh bottle may taste more intense than one you have used for months.
FAQ
How much mango flavour oil should I use?
Begin with just a few drops per batch, mix well and taste. Because it is concentrated, you can always add more, but you cannot easily remove it once it is in.
Is it real mango or artificial flavour?
It is a flavouring oil made with edible vegetable oil and permitted nature-identical and flavouring substances, designed to give a consistent mango taste. It is not fresh mango pulp.
Can I use it in water-based drinks or syrups?
It is oil-soluble, so it does not mix cleanly into plain water-based liquids. It performs best in fat-rich mixes like batters, chocolate, buttercream and ice cream. Very watery preparations can also weaken the flavour.
Is it vegan and alcohol-free?
Yes. It is free from animal-derived ingredients, alcohol-free and GMO-free, so it suits vegan and alcohol-free recipes.
How should I store it?
Keep it tightly capped in a cool, dry spot away from sunlight. Under these conditions it stays good for about two years.
