As a baker, I always have vanilla in my pantry. My favorite kind of vanilla is the Nielsen-Massey Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla (which incidentially has nothing to do with liquor). The thing I love most about this variety of vanilla is the smell you get when you first open the bottle. I think they could make this into an excellent perfume. It is an intoxicating scent and any baker will tell you they secretly sniff the bottle everytime they open it. The smell isn’t the only thing that draws you in, this vanilla works great in everything! I absolutely love it in homemade vanilla ice cream, it gives it such a rich and delicious flavor. I also find this vanilla works great in baked breads and cakes. The flavor is subtle and never overpowering (unless you use way too much). It is the nice backnote you always taste and will surely recognize after you try it. If you want to spice up your homemade whip cream try adding a little dab of this vanilla. If you would like to check out this or other vanilla products please click on the vanilla bottle photo above.
