Most adapt very well with sweet olive oil on the other hand for desserts which ask for a lot of sharpness, we can choice an vegetable oil as that of the sweet almond (but you should not make warm).

Bergamot essential oil adds in small quantity, which count in drops. Bergamot essential oil brings a flavor which divides up in a uniform way in any preparation from the moment when it is incorporated on an oily or sweet support (it is the case of all the mixtures for cakes, clafoutis, pancakes, sauces with vegetable oil and yoghourt).

The flavor of bergamote is present in depth, it is the flavor of the pure peel which shows itself in the tasting of a perfumed dessert in the essence of bergamote. According to the harvest, the region of origin, it will have its characteristics and this aroma bergamote is as a continuation, the essence restores an intensity which we generally perceived in a escaped way as we scratch the bark.

Our advice:

Generally, count 1 drop by portion (person) or 2 drops for more steady flavors.

In the form of essential oil, the concentration is such as the aromatic notes are more complex. The flavor is denser, more colored. A drop added in a cake gives a tasting which flies away, the flavor of the essential oil modulates as the preparation is cold or warm, it is growing and opens more olfactive doors.
