It is commonly used as a flavoring agent in a variety of sweet dishes, including cakes, cookies, ice cream, and custards. The vanilla beans are carefully selected and cured to develop their characteristic aroma and flavor. Then, they are steeped in a mixture of alcohol and water to extract the rich, complex flavor compounds. This process can take several months to complete, allowing the extract to develop a deep, nuanced flavor. Pure vanilla extract is prized for its intense, natural flavor, which is characterized by notes of caramel, cream, and floral undertones. It is made from real vanilla beans, no additives, colorants, fake flavors and contains zero sugars. It is an essential ingredient in many classic desserts and baked goods, adding a rich, decadent flavor that is difficult to replicate with other ingredients.
