Frequently Asked Questions

How much LorAnn pistachio flavouring should I use per batch?
LorAnn candy oils are highly concentrated. As a starting guide, use approximately 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon per standard cake or candy recipe, then taste and adjust. Because they are oil-based, a little goes a long way. Start conservative and add more incrementally.

Why use an oil-based flavouring instead of extract?
Oil-based flavourings are designed to work in applications where water would cause problems, such as chocolate tempering and hard candy making. Water-based extracts can cause chocolate to seize, while LorAnn candy oils blend smoothly without affecting texture.
