Baking emulsions are water-based, which means the flavour won't evaporate during baking the way alcohol does in an extract. They also won't seize melted chocolate — making them safe to use in ganaches and chocolate batters. LorAnn Baking Emulsions are more concentrated than most extracts, so you typically get a stronger, more consistent result with less product. How much LorAnn Maple Baking Emulsion should I use? Use 1 teaspoon per cup of batter or icing. Maple emulsion has a naturally sweet, mellow profile — for a stronger maple flavour in buttercream or cream cheese frosting, increase to 1.5 teaspoons. It also pairs well with a touch of vanilla emulsion for a classic bakery combination.
