Nutmeg CO2 Extract 100 g

How Nutmeg CO2 Extract Adds Warmth to Food and Fragrance Formulas

Nutmeg CO2 extract is produced through liquid carbon dioxide extraction without solvents or high temperatures, which allows the concentrate to retain the maximum amount of natural aromatic and bioactive compounds found in nutmeg seeds. This extraction method is especially valued in the food industry and by flavor manufacturers, since it yields a product free of residual hexane or alcohol typical of conventional extraction processes. This item belongs to the CO2 Extracts section, which brings together concentrated natural extracts used across food, fragrance and cosmetic production.

The primary application of nutmeg CO2 extract is flavoring food products: confectionery, liqueurs, sauces, sausage products and industrial spice blends. In food manufacturing it is introduced at the final mixing stage at temperatures not exceeding 40-50 degrees to preserve volatile aroma compounds, at dosages ranging from 0.05 to 0.3 percent of the product mass depending on the desired flavor intensity. A second major field of use is fragrance composition and household chemical products, where the extract functions as a warm spicy note blended with woody, citrus and oriental accords, typically at concentrations of 0.5 to 2 percent of the total fragrance mass.

In cosmetic manufacturing, nutmeg CO2 extract is used in creams, balms and body oils as an ingredient known for its warming and toning effect on skin, added to a cold or slightly warmed oil phase at a dosage of 0.1 to 1 percent. It pairs well with other CO2 concentrates of spicy and herbal plants, such as Rosemary CO2 Extract, which contributes a fresh herbal note and antioxidant properties, and Dill CO2 Extract, which lightens the overall aroma profile of the blend. For formulations focused on a calming effect on skin, combining it with Yarrow CO2 Extract works particularly well.

The 100 gram size is intended for studio-scale and small-batch production: confectionery workshops, small spice and seasoning lines, fragrance development labs, and cosmetic studios regularly producing batches of creams and body oils with spiced notes. This volume is sufficient for repeated formulation testing and several production runs without frequent reordering. The extract is also suitable for candle making with spiced scent profiles and in certain household chemical formulas where a warm spicy accent is desired.

Store the product in tightly sealed dark glass containers, in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and heat sources, at a temperature not exceeding 25 degrees. Under proper storage conditions the extract retains its aromatic properties for an extended period. Before introducing it into a new formulation, a small-scale trial test is recommended to determine the optimal dosage for the specific application.
