Pomegranate Flavour Oil is a concentrated, oil-soluble flavouring that carries the sweet, juicy and slightly tangy taste of ripe pomegranates into chocolates, sherbets, candies, ice creams, pastries and bakery items. A few drops go a long way, so it is meant to be added in tiny amounts rather than poured freely.
What is pomegranate flavour oil?
This is a flavouring essence derived from pomegranate extracts (INCI: Punica Granatum), blended into an edible vegetable oil base along with permitted nature-identical and flavouring substances. Because it is oil-soluble, it mixes smoothly into fat-based recipes such as chocolate and buttercream without seizing. Azlok's version is alcohol-free, GMO-free and suitable for vegans, since it uses no animal-derived ingredients.
Expect a fruity aroma, an energy-yellow colour and a taste that leans sweet with a refreshing tart edge, much like biting into fresh pomegranate arils.
Where to use it
- Chocolates and candies — stir into melted couverture or hard-boiled sugar sweets for a fruity twist.
- Ice creams and sherbets — a natural fit, as the tang cuts through creamy or icy bases.
- Cakes, pastries and cookies — flavour sponge batter, glazes, fillings and frostings.
- Juices and cold drinks — add a drop or two to sherbets, mocktails and flavoured waters.
- Fondant, jellies and mousses — for a pink-fruit note without added liquid.
How to use it
Flavour oils are strong, so start small and adjust to taste. As a rough guide:
- Begin with 2 to 4 drops per 500 g of batter, chocolate or ice cream base.
- Mix thoroughly and taste before adding more.
- For chocolate work, add the oil to the melted chocolate (not water-based mixtures) so it blends cleanly.
- In baked goods, remember that heat can soften delicate flavours, so you may need a slightly higher dose than in no-bake recipes.
Because it is oil-soluble, it disperses best in fatty or sugar-based recipes. In watery drinks it may not blend perfectly, so shake or stir well and use sparingly.
Safety and honest notes
The label marks this product for external purposes and cautions against direct eye contact, so please follow the packaging and any COA/MSDS guidance for your intended food use, and do not exceed sensible flavouring amounts. A few practical points:
- Keep the bottle away from children.
- Avoid contact with eyes; wipe up spills as the oil is concentrated.
- Use clean, dry droppers or spoons to prevent contamination.
- Being highly concentrated, it is a flavouring, not a beverage — never drink it neat.
