Azlok Pina Colada Flavour Oil is a concentrated, oil-soluble flavouring that brings together sweet pineapple and creamy coconut, made for oil- and fat-based recipes like chocolates, bakery items, desserts and lip care. Because it is highly concentrated, you only need a few drops to get a strong, long-lasting taste without changing the texture of your batter, ganache or balm.
What is Pina Colada Flavour Oil?
This is a nature-identical flavouring built on an edible vegetable oil base, carrying the aroma of pineapple and coconut. Unlike water-based extracts, an oil-based flavour blends smoothly with fats, waxes and chocolate, so it won't seize your couverture or split an emulsion. It has a light yellow colour, a distinctly tropical pineapple-and-coconut smell, and it is alcohol-free, GMO-free and vegan since no animal-derived ingredients are used.
Where you can use it
- Chocolates and confectionery: flavour moulded chocolates, bonbon fillings, fudge and hard candies.
- Bakery: cakes, pastries, muffins, cookies and buttercream.
- Frozen desserts: ice cream, kulfi, sherbets and sorbet bases.
- Lip care: lip balms and lip scrubs where an oil-soluble flavour is needed.
Because it disperses in fat rather than water, it is a natural fit for anything with butter, cocoa butter, oil or wax in it. For very watery recipes, it may not distribute as evenly, so it shines most in the applications above.
How to use it
Start small. A little goes a long way with concentrated flavour oils, and it is far easier to add more than to fix an over-flavoured batch.
- Begin with a drop or two per 100 g of your base (chocolate, batter or balm).
- Mix thoroughly and taste or smell before adding more.
- For chocolate, stir the oil in once your couverture is melted and tempered, keeping the quantity minimal to protect the set.
- For lip balm, add it to the melted oil-and-wax blend just before pouring, off the heat.
Heat can drive off some aroma, so where possible add the flavour towards the end of mixing rather than at the start of a long bake.
Tips and safety notes
- Dose lightly: over-flavouring can turn a pleasant tropical note harsh. Build up gradually.
- Keep it oil-based: pair it with fats, waxes and chocolate for the smoothest results.
- Store correctly: keep the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Handle sensibly: this is a concentrated flavouring, not a ready-to-drink product. Keep it out of reach of children and away from eyes.
- Patch-test for lip care: if you are making balms, do a small skin patch test on the finished product before regular use.
- Check the paperwork: for commercial use, ask for the COA and MSDS so your formulation records stay complete.
Buying and storage
Azlok offers this flavour oil in a wide range of pack sizes, from a handy 100 g bottle up to bulk 25 kg for small businesses and larger kitchens. Home bakers and hobbyists usually find the 100 g or 500 g size lasts a long while, given how little you use per batch. The listed price starts at ₹299, and larger packs suit those making regular production runs of chocolates, candies or bath and lip products.
Stored well in a cool, dry, dark spot, the product has a shelf life of about two years. Always reseal the cap firmly after use to keep the aroma from fading and to avoid moisture getting in.
FAQ
Is Pina Colada Flavour Oil edible?
Yes, it is a food-grade flavouring made on an edible vegetable oil base and is suitable for chocolates, sherbets, candies, pastries, ice creams and bakery items. Use it in recommended small amounts as a flavouring, not on its own.
Can I use it in water-based drinks?
It is designed for oil- and fat-based applications, so it disperses best in chocolate, batters, waxes and oils. In purely water-based mixtures it may not blend evenly, so a water-soluble flavour would be a better choice there.
Is it vegan and alcohol-free?
Yes. It contains no animal-derived ingredients, so vegans can use it, and it is alcohol-free. It is also GMO-free, as no plant-derived ingredients are used in its manufacture.
How much should I add?
Start with a drop or two per 100 g of your base, mix well, then adjust to taste. Because it is concentrated, adding slowly gives you the most control.
How long does it last?
The shelf life is around two years when stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, with the cap kept tightly closed.
