How is Pure Lemon Paste different from lemon extract?

Pure Lemon Paste includes the same bright, lemon flavor as our Pure Lemon Extract, but in a paste form that has a thick consistency. We use gum tragacanth, a naturally derived thickener, to achieve this molasses-like consistency.

How can I use Pure Lemon Paste?

It is excellent as a glaze on top of cakes and scones or brushed on fish before grilling or broiling. You can also add it to yogurt, frostings and pastry creams for a lovely lemon flavor.

What is the shelf life of Nielsen-Massey Pure Lemon Paste?

The shelf life of Nielsen-Massey Pure Lemon Paste is up to 3 years. The “Best By” date printed on the side of the bottle indicates its expiration.

How should I store Pure Lemon Paste after opening?

For best results, store in an airtight container at room temperature, away from direct heat and sunlight. Do not refrigerate or freeze.

Product Description

We begin crafting our all-natural pure flavor extracts by sourcing only the finest premium ingredients from the world’s best growing regions. Each ingredient is evaluated to ensure it meets our discriminating quality standards. Our pure flavor extracts are then produced to ensure that the delicate flavor notes are carefully preserved without losing any of the sweetness or richness of nature’s bounty.

To provide you with maximum quality and flavor, we make Nielsen-Massey Pure Lemon Extract with just three simple, natural ingredients: natural oil of lemon, pure cane alcohol and water. The lemon oil is drawn from the natural essence of the highest quality California lemons. Save time zesting, peeling or juicing lemons by adding Pure Lemon Extract to any dish for a splash of fresh, bright citrus flavor. Lemon extract is a fantastic ingredient for cocktails and other beverages, as well as frostings and marinades.

Other application ideas include:

• Sweet: cookies, cakes, bars, pies, marmalades, jams, jellies, gelatin, frozen desserts, fillings, frostings, whipped creams, whipped toppings

• Savory: marinades, dressings, recipes with: fish, pork, chicken, rice, vegetables, parsley, rosemary, thyme, garlic, basil

• Beverage: lemonades, teas, mojitos, Bourbon cocktails, Amaretto sours

• Other: stirred into blueberry yogurt

I purchased the large size of this lemon paste and have used it regularly in my baked goods. It's so much easier than squeezing lemons and the flavor is just as good if not better than actual lemons. I have recommended the lemon paste to friends as well. Neilsen-Massey makes wonderful products.

I was hesitant as I frequently make lemon curd and like the flavor of lemon in many things.
This has a great flavor and ability to boost the lemon flavor without added moisture or upsetting a balance in baking recipes. I will use this often. A bit pricey and wish the amount was a little more generous,
but.......😏
