Uses

Commonly used in cakes to remove the egg smell or to make vanilla-flavored snacks.

Because it is a concentrated essence, the amount should not be too much, so as not to overwhelm the original flavor of the pastry with too strong vanilla flavor.

In addition to concentrated essence, there are also powdered vanilla powder and tablet-like vanilla tablets. Vanilla tablets need to be crushed into powder before use, and the dosage is equivalent to vanilla powder. But the amount of vanilla powder should be slightly more than the vanilla extract.
