Our Pure Clove oil is highly concentrated and should be used sparingly. It has 3 or 4 times the strength of water or alcohol based extracts. Clove oil is used in cooking and baking pastries, candy etc. as a replacement for ground cloves. 1-2 drops of pure clove oil is good for about 10 servings of candies or pastries. When making candy the oil should be added after it cools down, right before putting the candy in the candy molds. This clove oil is Gluten-Free and Sugar-Free.
