How to Use

For most flavoring applications, Dolce Flav recommends approximately 0.3–0.6% by total recipe weight. For a 500 g total batch, that is 1.5–3 g of flavoring; for a 1 kg total batch, 3–6 g. Product-specific instructions take precedence. Weigh the flavoring, test a small batch and assess the finished flavor after cooking, cooling or freezing before scaling. Works beautifully in:

Pound cakes, sugar cookies & pastries
Buttercreams & frostings
Caramel & butterscotch sauces
Popcorn & savory butter seasonings
Hard & soft candies
Syrups & simple syrups
Protein shakes & smoothies

Butter extract for baking: flavor versus function

Use butter extract to add buttery flavor to cakes, cookies, frostings and sauces. It is a concentrated flavoring, not a replacement for the fat, moisture or structure that butter provides. Keep the butter or other fat required by your recipe unless that recipe includes tested substitutions.
