Product Insights
Zitronenschale is a 6 g lemon‑peel spice blend from Dr. Oetker, positioned as a plant‑based condiment in the spices category. It consists of 60 % dextrose, 36 % partially dehydrated lemon peel, 1.4 % lemon oil and a suite of additives such as anti‑caking agent E341, antioxidants E300 and E304, preservative E200, colour E101 and flavouring, resulting in a very high sugar content of 67 g per 100 g while containing virtually no fat or salt. The product is classified as NOVA 4 ultra‑processed, has no Nutri‑Score (not applicable for spices), and although the ingredients are plant‑derived, the vegan status of some additives remains uncertain, making it less suitable for low‑sugar or strictly vegan diets.
