Description
Step into an authentic European pâtisserie with every drop. Nielsen-Massey Pure Almond Extract is a masterclass in balance, offering a warm, toasted, and intensely cherry-like sweetness that is the hallmark of world-class baking. Crafted from the purest oil of bitter almond, this extract provides a deep, floral-nutty profile that is far more complex than standard synthetic imitations. It is the essential "second bottle" in every serious baker’s pantry, sitting right next to their vanilla.
Why It’s a Baker’s Essential:
  • Pure Bitter Almond Oil: Made from high-quality natural oils to deliver a clean, bold flavour that doesn't fade during baking.
  • The Ultimate Flavour Harmoniser: A tiny amount rounds out the sweetness of stone fruits (like cherries and peaches) and adds a professional "bakery scent" to simple sponges.
  • High-Definition Aroma: Captures that classic marzipan-like fragrance that defines authentic Italian biscotti and French macarons.
  • A Little Goes a Long Way: Highly concentrated for maximum impact—just a few drops are enough to transform an entire recipe.
The Versatile Nutty Companion:
  • The Classics: The soul of Bakewell tarts, frangipane, marzipan, and shortbread cookies.
  • Fruit Pairing: The perfect partner for cherry pies, peach cobblers, and apricot jams—it intensifies the natural pit-fruit flavour.
  • Breakfast & Beverages: Stir a drop into your morning oatmeal, almond milk lattes, or a classic Amaretto Sour for an extra layer of luxury.
Product Highlights:
  • Clean Label: Contains only Bitter Almond Oil, Alcohol, and Water—no artificial syrups or colours.
  • Dietary Friendly: Certified Gluten-Free, Vegan, Kosher, and Non-GMO.
  • Century of Craft: Family-owned excellence since 1907.
Chef’s Tip: Almond extract is potent! Use it sparingly—usually half the amount of vanilla called for in a recipe—to achieve a subtle, sophisticated finish rather than an overpowering one.

¼ tsp. Almond Extract + 1 Tbs. sugar = 1 Tbs. Almond Paste for Flavouring
