Lemon Paste
Bright spring flavor in a bottle!
This thick Nielsen-Massey paste bursts with real, zesty lemon flavor. Made with oil extracted from California lemons, combined with a touch of cane sugar, it's an excellent way to add pure lemon flavor to recipes without using zest or juice. It has a syrupy, molasses-like consistency and sweet-tart taste.
Especially ideal for recipes like frostings that you don't want to thin out with lemon juice. Try it in cake batters, frostings, glazes, and more.

Hi Ilene. We're glad you offered your opinion of the lemon paste. Tasting any extract straight can be a real shocker! It is fairly intense, with a lovely citrus scent but like a real lemon, it does have a hint of the refreshing sharpness that makes all things lemon so appealing. You can use it mixed with a marinade for fish or grilled summer vegetables, or a drop in a salad dressing. Some people like to punch up the flavor of lemon curd with it, or even add to lemon sorbet in the summer. When this is combined in either savory or sweet applications it will provide just the right balance to your palate. Happy baking! Laurie@KAF
