Pear extract

Pear extract (CAS 90082-43-2), also known commercially as Pyrus communis extract, is a botanical-derived ingredient sourced from the fruit of the common pear tree. It delivers characteristic sweet, floral, and fruity flavor and fragrance notes to finished products.

In food and beverage manufacturing, this extract is used to flavor confectionery, baked goods, carbonated drinks, and fruit-flavored beverages where a natural pear profile is required. Beverage formulators incorporate it into juices and nectars.

The ingredient is also used in flavored water products to achieve consistent organoleptic performance batch to batch. In personal care, the extract functions as a fragrance component in body washes, lotions, and hair care products.

These applications typically target fresh, fruity scent profiles for consumer goods. Flavor houses also use it as a building block in compound flavors designed to replicate or enhance natural fruit character in dairy products and desserts.

The product is available in liquid and powder forms, with liquid concentrates being the most common supply format for flavor and fragrance applications. Both natural and nature-identical grades are available depending on requirements.

Food-grade specifications are standard, and suppliers typically offer documentation supporting compliance with regional flavor regulations including FEMA and EU flavor frameworks. Quality is maintained through rigorous testing.

The material is produced to meet high industry benchmarks such as FCC, USP, Ph.Eur., BP, EP, or ACS standards where applicable. This ensures safety and efficacy for global distribution and manufacturing.
