Pure rose extract offers a beautiful floral bouquet and flavor that perfectly complements wedding cakes, icing and florets. Add just a few drops to your recipe for an unmistakable rose flavor. Pure rose oil is one of the most highly regarded ingredients in flavors and fragrance. A kilo (2.2 pounds) of rose oil costs many thousands of dollars, requiring fields of flower petals to produce small amounts of oil. The use of roses for sauces or flavoring meats and rice-based dishes was very popular during the Renaissance. Due to its intense flavor, use our Pure Rose Extract (different than rose water) very sparingly. Add just a few drops to creme brulee, sugar cookies, tea, sauces, dressings, puddings, cakes and sorbet for an unmistakable rose flavor.
