Peach extract

Peach extract (CAS 84012-34-0), also marketed as Prunus persica extract, is a botanical-derived ingredient sourced from the fruit, skin, or leaves of the peach plant. It delivers authentic peach flavor and fragrance character across food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical applications.

In these industries, natural-origin positioning is a key purchasing driver for manufacturers. In food and beverage manufacturing, it functions as a natural flavoring agent in products such as fruit drinks, confectionery, yogurts, and baked goods.

This ingredient is essential where clean-label peach taste is required for the final consumer. Fragrance and personal care formulators incorporate it into skin creams, serums, body washes, and hair care products for both scent profile and antioxidant-active botanical content.

Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers use it in oral formulations, dietary supplements, and flavored syrups. These applications help to mask bitterness and contribute natural fruit character to medicinal products that require improved palatability.

Confectionery and beverage producers also source it specifically for natural-label compliance, replacing synthetic peach flavor systems. Peach extract is available as a liquid extract, spray-dried powder, and concentrated paste for various industrial needs.

Liquid forms are typically supplied in water- or alcohol-based carrier systems for easy integration. Standard grades include food-grade and cosmetic-grade, with food-grade material commonly meeting FCC specifications for safety and purity.

Concentration levels vary by supplier, and buyers should confirm standardization basis and solvent profile when evaluating sources. This ensures the extract meets the specific technical requirements of the intended formulation and production process.
