LorAnn Oils

LorAnn Oils has been a trusted name in concentrated flavorings and essential oils for well over a century, and the range gathered here reflects that reputation for potency and consistency. Because these are highly concentrated flavors, a little goes a long way — a fraction of what you'd use with a standard grocery-store extract — which is exactly why bakers, candy makers, and beverage crafters reach for them.

The lineup spans a broad flavor library, from classic vanilla, peppermint, and lemon to harder-to-find profiles like root beer, buttered rum, and various fruit and nut notes. You'll find these flavors offered in a few different formats, and knowing the difference matters: oil-based flavorings are the go-to for hard candy and chocolate work because they stand up to high cooking temperatures without cooking off, while water-soluble and emulsion-style flavors suit frostings, batters, and drinks where you want the flavor to blend smoothly.

A common question is how much to use — as a rule of thumb, one dram of a super-strength flavor roughly replaces a teaspoon or more of ordinary extract, so start small and adjust to taste. Many of these flavors are also alcohol-free and gluten-free, which makes them a practical choice when you're accommodating dietary needs.

Whether you're a home baker experimenting with lip balm and hard candy or running a small production kitchen, this collection is built to help you match the right flavor concentration and base to your project. Store bottles tightly capped in a cool, dark spot and they'll hold their strength for a long shelf life.
