Frequently Asked Questions (Google's Top Searches)
How do I substitute Vanilla Bean Paste for Vanilla Extract or Whole Pods?
Vanilla bean paste converts effortlessly in any recipe:
-
1 tbsp Vanilla Bean Paste = 1 Whole Vanilla Pod (Scraped)
-
1 tsp Vanilla Bean Paste = 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
What is the difference between Vanilla Bean Paste and Vanilla Extract?
Vanilla Extract is a liquid made by steeping vanilla beans in alcohol and water, providing flavor without altering the visual appearance of a dish. Vanilla Bean Paste is a thicker blend containing real crushed vanilla seeds and extract. It provides a richer, rounded flavor and adds classic visual black specks to your desserts.
Why packaging in a squeeze tube is better than a jar?
Squeeze tubes keep the paste sealed from air exposure every time you open them, helping preserve the delicate volatile aromas longer. Plus, it eliminates double-dipping with spoons, keeps your counter clean, and lets you measure directly into your mixing bowl.
Is Organic Vanilla Bean Paste gluten-free and vegan?
Yes! Our Organic Vanilla Bean Paste is made using clean, plant-based organic ingredients, making it naturally gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and non-GMO.
Does Vanilla Bean Paste need to be refrigerated after opening?
No. Vanilla bean paste is shelf-stable. Store your tube in a cool, dark pantry or baking cabinet away from direct light and stove heat. Refrigeration is not recommended, as cold temperatures can cause the paste to thicken or crystallize inside the tube.
