Description
Natural Vanilla Paste is a proprietary double-fold blend of pure vanilla extract, sugar, natural flavors, caramel color, xanthan gum (a natural thickener), and filtered water. There are no imitation ingredients in this product. It is a dark amber-colored viscous liquid containing vanilla bean seeds, and having a characteristic vanilla aroma and flavor. It will maintain flavor for at least three years if stored in a cool, dark place. (Do not refrigerate.)
Culinary Tips
Natural Vanilla Paste can be used just like pure vanilla paste for baking, cooking, and flavoring beverages, condiments, etc. The flavor is very similar to pure vanilla paste but has its own profile that emphasizes the natural vanillin rather than the full flavor spectrum found in pure vanilla.
Our decision to carry Natural Vanilla Paste is based on the current exceptionally high cost of pure vanilla extracts and pastes. We understand the issues involved with producing fine artisan foods and beverages as affordably as possible, and Natural Vanilla Paste can assist you in doing this. Use this natural paste by itself or combine it with our pure vanilla extracts or pastes to help defray costs while maintaining high-quality finished products.

We use 2-Fold Vanilla Paste in our favorite overnight oatmeal recipe, a daily staple in our home. The vanilla flavor stands up well to the cinnamon and fruit ingredients. This vanilla paste is easily the thickest we have used. We view its lower alcohol content (20% vs 30%-35% more common in other brands) as a positive.
