Pure Almond Extract
For those who bake, Pure Almond Extract's use in a wide range of recipes–from cookies to cakes to pies to pastries–and its ability to complement vanilla, chocolate, maple or butterscotch has made it a kitchen necessity. But, this extract can be used in an ever-expanding host of delicious possibilities. For instance, almond has a special affinity for fruit and sweetly embraces raspberries, strawberries, peaches, raisins and plums. Or, use a little in salad dressings, sauces, custards or ice cream to give them that special, sweetly aromatic flavor.

Pure Chocolate Extract
The culinary possibilities and flavor combinations for our full-depth Pure Chocolate Extract are endless. While it adds an extra measure of chocolate richness to dishes that have a chocolate base, it can also add subtle distinction to sauces (especially moles) and chilies. The flavor pairs nicely with chile peppers, tomatoes, legumes and vanilla. And, it goes without saying that chocolate works magical wonders in beverages and desserts.

Pure Coffee Extract
Use this rich coffee flavor to accentuate chocolate, add nuance to vanilla and enhance the tastes of recipes across the culinary spectrum. Our Pure Coffee Extract lends richness and distinction to frozen desserts, baked goods and cocoa. Yet, it can also delight in savory dishes, such as soups, stews, tomato sauces, gravies and salsas. Another advantage is that ground coffee and beans lose their flavor quickly, making it difficult to keep on hand. Our Pure Coffee Extract lasts for three years, meaning you can use the exact amount your recipe calls for and then store it at room temperature until you need it again.
