Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a baking emulsion and an extract?

Baking emulsions are water-based, which means the flavour won't evaporate during baking the way alcohol does in an extract. They also won't seize melted chocolate — making them safe to use in ganaches and chocolate batters. LorAnn Baking Emulsions are more concentrated than most extracts, so you typically get a stronger, more consistent result with less product.

How much LorAnn Peppermint Baking Emulsion should I use?

Peppermint is one of the more potent emulsion flavours — start with half a teaspoon per cup of batter or icing and taste before adding more. In ganache, a quarter teaspoon can be enough. For a clearly peppermint buttercream, work up to 1 teaspoon. Over-flavouring with peppermint is easy, so always taste first.
