almond essence
Baking extract, nutty
Almond essence is a concentrated flavoring used in baking and confectionery, typically synthetic and derived from benzaldehyde rather than actual almonds.
It delivers the characteristic marzipan-like taste to cakes, cookies, and pastries: Add a few drops of almond essence to the batter.
Distinguished from almond extract, which is made from real almonds steeped in alcohol, though the terms are often used interchangeably.
