Citral essential oil (CEO) was encapsulated by the single coalescence method, and its stability, release properties, and ability to maintain freshness were evaluated for the first time. The microshape characteristics of a CEO-loaded microcapsule (CM) were analyzed by inverted microscopy (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The encapsulation efficiency, stability, and release behavior of CEO were evaluated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric/differential thermal comprehensive analysis (TG/DSC), and gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Moreover, peaches were used to evaluate the preservation properties of the CEO-loaded microcapsule. The results showed that the microcapsule produced using simple coacervation had better microstructure and the ability to reduce and control the release of citral essential oil. The qualities of peaches, such as appearance changes, hardness, soluble solid content, total acids, and total bacterial counts, were significantly improved in the CM system during storage, in comparison with the control and cold storage groups. Therefore, the CM has potential applications and development prospects in the food, drug, and other industries.
