Is rose essence and rose water the same thing?

I have a recipe with rose essence , pineapple essence and strawberry essence for a cake...and a recipe with saffron essence as a substitute ingredient for rice...

Is rose essence and rose water the same thing?
heavens, no...


rose essence is extremely concentrated rose extract used in making perfumes, a very small amount is used to make (usually) ladies perfumes.


The best one comes from Bulgaria and Turkey





Rose water is made with rose petals and is a clear liquid with sugar and delicate rose fragrance, it used in making pastries.


what you need is pastry essence (rose scent) available from supermarkets.
Reply:hmm.. i suppose it's different.
