OLIVENATION Hazelnut Extract 4 oz — PG-Free, Concentrated Alcohol-Based Flavoring for Baking & Coffee

OliveNation Hazelnut Extract (4 oz, PG-free) is a concentrated, alcohol-based flavoring that adds clean hazelnut taste to cakes, cookies, ice cream and coffee.

This 4-ounce bottle from OliveNation delivers a true hazelnut profile without propylene glycol, formulated from natural hazelnut extractives with a touch of caramel coloring and water. Certified Kosher, vegan, non-GMO and naturally gluten-free, the extract is made for home bakers, baristas and small-batch food producers who want dependable nutty flavor without altering texture or sweetness.

How strong is the flavor and how much should I use?

The extract is concentrated, so small amounts go a long way—ideal for both large and small recipes. Start with conservative amounts and adjust to taste: extracts are easier to increase than to remove once mixed in.

• Suggested: 1 teaspoon per boxed yellow cake to enhance batter.
• Coffee: about 1/2 teaspoon for 10–12 cups of brewed coffee.
• Ice cream: guideline from manufacturer—3 oz flavors approximately five gallons.
• Always taste as you go; increase by 1/4-teaspoon increments for finer control.

Can I use it in both hot and cold preparations?

Yes—this alcohol-based extract blends well into liquids, batters and creams, making it suitable for hot drinks, baked goods and frozen desserts. Its formulation disperses without adding visible oiliness or graininess.

• Add directly to brewed coffee or spray lightly on whole beans before grinding for infused grounds.
• Stir into custards and ice cream bases before churning for even flavor distribution.
• Mix into frostings and icings—vanilla or chocolate buttercream pairs especially well.
• Compatible with both scratch and boxed-mix recipes for consistent results.

What are the ingredient and dietary considerations?

The product lists alcohol, natural hazelnut extractives, caramel coloring (Prop 65 compliant) and water; it is PG-free. It’s certified Kosher, vegan, naturally gluten-free and non-GMO, making it suitable for many dietary needs, though it does contain alcohol-based extractives.

• PG-free (no propylene glycol).
• Certified Kosher, vegan and non-GMO.
• Naturally gluten-free—useful for gluten-sensitive baking.
• Contains alcohol and caramel coloring; check if these conflict with specific dietary restrictions.

How should I store and measure this extract for best shelf life?

Keep the bottle tightly sealed, away from direct heat or sunlight, and store at room temperature to preserve aroma. Because extracts are potent, measure with small spoons or a graduated dropper for accuracy when scaling recipes.

• Store upright at room temperature, away from heat and light.
• Use a dedicated measuring spoon or dropper to avoid cross-contamination.
• Label batches if used in production to track flavoring dates and batches.
• If in doubt, smell and test a small amount before full-use—aromas indicate potency.

Who is this for: OliveNation Hazelnut Extract is aimed at home bakers, specialty coffee makers, artisan ice-cream creators and small food businesses who want a reliable, PG-free hazelnut flavoring. It’s especially useful for anyone needing kosher, vegan and gluten-free-friendly flavor solutions that blend cleanly into beverages, batters and frozen desserts.
