Clove extract

Clove extract is a natural ingredient derived from the flower buds of the clove tree. These buds are harvested and processed to create the extract, which is commonly used to add flavour to a variety of foods and products.

To make clove extract, the flower buds are dried and then distilled to extract the essential oils contained within them. This process helps concentrate the distinctive flavour and aroma of cloves into a potent extract that can be used in cooking and baking.

Clove extract is often included in food products for its warm, spicy flavour that can enhance the taste of dishes like curries, sauces, and baked goods. It is also used for its potential health benefits and natural preservation properties, making it a popular choice for manufacturers looking to add both flavour and functionality to their products.
