Sweet, almond-style liqueur flavor with no alcohol and no flavor fade. Water-based, heat-stable, and built to give you that warm amaretto richness from the first whisk to the last bite.
This is the bottle for the baker who wants that sweet, almond-and-cherry amaretto note in their desserts without the alcohol burn, the bitter liqueur aftertaste, or the flavor that disappears the second it hits the oven. It is warm, soft, slightly sweet at the front, with a true almond-style heart and a gentle marzipan finish that lingers.
You get a 1 ounce bottle of amaretto bakery emulsion, handcrafted in small batches with the same clean five-ingredient base used across the Fleur De Flavor water-based line.
What Makes This Amaretto Different
Most amaretto flavoring in the baking aisle is either alcohol-based (which burns off in the oven) or built around bitter almond notes that turn sharp once heated. Neither one tastes like the amaretto your customer remembers from a wedding cake, a tiramisu, or a slice of almond pound cake at the bakery counter.
Fleur De Flavor Amaretto Emulsion is water-based and heat-stable, so the sweet almond and marzipan notes bond to your batter instead of evaporating. The flavor you smell in the bottle is the flavor that comes out of the oven, and the flavor your customer tastes in the first bite and the last.
Flavor Profile
Sweet, rounded amaretto at the front. Soft almond and marzipan in the middle. A warm, slightly cherry-blossom finish that does not turn bitter or chemical. Built to play well with chocolate, cherry, vanilla, citrus, caramel, and most nut flavors.
Best Uses
- Amaretto pound cake, almond pound cake, and wedding layer cakes
- Tiramisu, zabaglione, and Italian-style dessert fillings
- Buttercream, cream cheese frosting, and whipped fillings
- Cookie dough, cookie fillings, and biscotti
- Cheesecake batter, panna cotta, and no-bake dessert cups
- Frangipane, almond croissants, and Danish pastry fillings
- Amaretto sours, almond lattes, milkshakes, and dessert cocktails
How to Use
Starting dose for batter: 1 teaspoon per cup of batter (cakes, cookies, quick breads, brownies) Starting dose for frosting, fillings, ganache, whipped cream, or cookie dough: 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon per cup of base
Shake the bottle well before each use. Add with the wet ingredients or fold in at the end of mixing. This emulsion is concentrated, so start at the lower end of the range and build to taste. A little goes a long way.
Substitution tip: If your recipe calls for 1 teaspoon of amaretto extract or 1 tablespoon of amaretto liqueur, substitute 1 teaspoon of Fleur De Flavor Amaretto Emulsion. You will get a smoother, rounder amaretto flavor with no alcohol burn and no bitter aftertaste.
Flavor Pairings That Just Work
- Amaretto + Cherry for a true Italian-style dessert note
- Amaretto + Classic Chocolate for a chocolate-almond dream
- Amaretto + Vanilla Butter Nut for a warm, sweet depth
- Amaretto + Salted Caramel for a salted almond buttercream
- Amaretto + Strawberry Shortcake for a soft, sweet berry note
- Amaretto + Almond + Bride's Cake for a layered wedding cake
Smart Baker Notes
Amaretto is one of the most-requested Italian flavors in any bakery, and one of the trickiest to nail. Most extracts fade in the oven, and most liqueur-based recipes either lose the alcohol and keep the bitter notes, or keep the alcohol and lose the flavor balance. Emulsions solve this because the flavor is carried in water, which mixes into your batter and stays put through the bake.
This bottle is also a smart substitute in any recipe that calls for almond extract when you want a sweeter, more rounded almond note. Think amaretto cookies, amaretto buttercream, and amaretto pound cake. The flavor is built to layer with almond, not replace it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an extract or an emulsion? This is a bakery emulsion. Emulsions are water-based, stronger than extracts, and designed to hold their flavor through heat. That makes them the better choice for baking, frosting, and any application where the product goes in the oven or on the stovetop.
Does this contain alcohol? No. This emulsion contains no alcohol. It delivers the sweet, almond-style amaretto flavor without the alcohol burn or the bitter liqueur aftertaste.
Will the amaretto flavor fade after baking? No. This emulsion is specifically formulated to survive baking temperatures. The amaretto taste you smell in the bottle is the amaretto taste you will taste in the finished dessert.
Can I substitute this for amaretto liqueur in any recipe? Yes. For most baking recipes, substitute 1 teaspoon of Fleur De Flavor Amaretto Emulsion for every 1 tablespoon of amaretto liqueur. You will get a smoother, rounder amaretto flavor with no alcohol burn. For drinks, start with 1/4 teaspoon per serving and build to taste.
Can I use this in drinks? Yes. The emulsion is water-based and blends easily into milks, creamers, coffee drinks, milkshakes, and dessert cocktails. It is a smart way to add amaretto flavor to drinks without the alcohol.
How much should I use per recipe? Use 1 teaspoon per cup of batter for cakes, cookies, quick breads, and brownies.
