ORGANIC Cherry Pit Oil

Our Organic Cherry Pit Oil is gently cold pressed from the aromatic pits of the sour cherry. The stones are first dried. The stones are then carefully separated from the pit and processed into the precious oil using spindle presses. This gentle process preserves the valuable ingredients.

Cold pressed sour cherry seed oil

We use the seeds of the sour cherry to make Cherry Kernel Oil. The cherry belongs to the rose family (Rosaceae). The tree produces both sour and sweet cherries. We mainly eat sweet cherries fresh, partly because of their sweet flavour. Sour cherries, on the other hand, contain more fruit acid and are therefore mostly processed, for example into jams or juice. They are ideal for baking, for example. Sour cherries ripen later and are therefore harvested later than sweet cherries. Sour cherries are also smaller and juicier.

The vegan, lactose-free and gluten-free organic cooking oil from Ölmühle Solling is rich in unsaturated fatty acids. The composition of Cherry Kernel Oil is similar to our speciality oils Plum Kernel Oil, Apricot Kernel Oil and Almond Oil. The colour of Cherry Kernel Oil is light to medium yellow. The flavour is reminiscent of amaretto.

For refining desserts and pastries

With a flavour reminiscent of bitter almonds, our freshly milled, cold-pressed Cherry Pit Oil is an excellent addition to desserts and pastries. The subtle amaretto flavour adds a unique touch to desserts. Berries, pastries and jams are perfect with the flavour of this oil speciality, but it is also ideal for refining salad dressings.

Cherry pit oil enhances desserts and pastries as well as savoury dishes such as salads.
