Almond Extract

Almond Extract is a concentrated flavoring commonly used in baking and desserts to impart a distinct almond-like aroma; traditional versions are derived from bitter almonds or related kernels while many commercial products are alcohol-based extracts. It is used in very small quantities and is not a source of macronutrients—per 100g it contains 327kcal but virtually no protein, fiber or fat. Because it is an ultra-processed flavoring and typically used sparingly, its overall nutritional impact on a recipe is negligible; it does contain trace minerals and tocopherols but shouldn’t be relied on for nutritional benefit.
