I know were all looking for that special ingreident to make our cakes/icings stand out amongst the rest.

I've come across a small flavor packet in my store called True Lemon.
The packet contains a citrus powder. There is also True Orange and True Lime. The packets are little, just like a substitute sweetner packet.
I love True Lemon in my tea. I like it better than real Lemon!

So I was thinking of adding this to my icings and I'm going to experiment with adding a few packets to my white cuppies to make them Margarita flavored. Just a drop or two of green food coloring too. OR, add this to my icing and make them limey.

How about an orange flavored sugar cookie?

PS-Look for this next to your substitute sweetners or in the juice section next to the bottled lemon juice (yuck).

Thanks for that idea gotta try it.

Interesting.

Can you post an ingredient list, please?

I just signed up and I can't wait to try my free sample.

Thanks for sharing this with us.

I have this item and let me tell you....
It's awesome!
It's crystalized lemon and it makes my lemon cake very flavorfull.

I use it in my water to drink. With a little splenda or sugar, it makes a great lemonade.
They also have an orange, but you won't get that in the sample packet.

Ingredients: citric acid, maltodextrin, lemon juice, lemon oil, and ascorbic acid(which is vitamin c)

I tried the lemon in a quart of water where I would normally put 2-4 lemon wedges(I am not a big water drinker...it's an incentive...kindasorta....I love lemon). I put two packets(sample packets) and it isn't overpowering, it adds just enough flavor to keep me drinking it. aaaaaaaaaaand there were no extra calories to deal with sooooooooo I didn't have to cut back on eating cake to keep from feeling like I'd gone overboard with the "calorie budget".

thanks

thanks so much. They actually have those here at my job and I never gave them a 2nd glance. Im gonna go swipe a few and see what happens!

Sounds really good, can't wait for my samples! Thank you for the tip

Sounds really good Thanks will try once my sample come in!

Thanks, calicopurr.

I also hate drinking "plain" water....
