I love the look of this, but I find the strength of alcohol-based vanilla extract to be greater than what's in this jar. I want to love it, but it's just not quite as intense as everyone is saying.

Shank's vanilla bean paste is thicker than vanilla extract or imitation vanilla, though it can be used for the same purpose. It's made by infusing vanilla beans into a syrup consisting of sugar and water. The beans are grated into the syrup, leaving black flecks and specks that add visual appeal to whatever dish you're making. Vanilla bean paste can be used to add vanilla flavoring to a variety of recipes, from ice cream, to frosting, to sauces, to cakes and other baked goods. Use this Shank's 4 fl. oz. vanilla bean paste as a substitute for your vanilla extract and make delectable and tantalizing culinary creations for your customers!
Shank's Extracts, Inc. was founded in 1899, initially creating flavorings to help make medicines taste better. Expanding their company and label through the years, their flavors, extracts, and food colorings are sold in major grocery chains across the Northeastern and Midwestern U.S. Today, their primary product remains Shank's Compound Flavoring of Vanilla Bean, and they continue to make quality products for both retail and industrial applications.

We really like this product in our creams and sauces where we want to show the bean flake -- at a reasonable price.
this vanilla bean paste is excellent. great flavour and pricing. we will absolutely order again and will recommend it to others that are looking for quality product.
This vanilla paste is a great addition to your dessert recipes. I love it for my hand made vanilla bean ice cream recipes. In some recipes I use this instead of extra

Purchased many time and never an issue. Has a nice taste and works well in my Vanilla Bean Buttercream. I have has a lot of good feedback
Great concentrate, big enough to last us a while, easy to use packaging, shipped really quick. Great quality for the price, some baked goods just need the visual of the seeds. Will continue to order again!
I Love love this vanilla bean paste. I use it all the time and clients love the taste and great flavor. Lots of beans and I purchase it all the time.
Such a fabulous and pure vanilla bean paste. We buy this from Webstaurant instead of going through our local distributor or getting it in the store because it really is a superior product to other ones out there. The vanilla is powerfully aromatic and is a great flavoring for all of our baked goods in store. Highly recommend this brand.
Taste like real vanilla pods, and for that price it is really a great price, I sometimes get a weaker brand and mix it in !
This was my first time for using vanilla bean paste. Wow! Great flavor and adds a very smooth vanilla flavor to any item that vanilla is the featured flavor.

Now that vanilla is so expensive, I can’t find ground vanilla beans. This vanilla bean paste is my alternative. It give me the pure vanilla taste and the speckles I like to see in my cakes.
very good vanilla bean paste, nice flavor and aroma. Good consistency, bottle is perfect. would recommend all shanks productos. Price is amazing also , can't beat it
Good product -- nice fragrance and flavor. It's not cheap but I'm always willing to pay for the real flavor of vanilla beans in my baking.

I've been using this to add the signature black flecks of vanilla bean to desserts. Wish there was more flavor though. I haven't bought vanilla bean paste from other brands before, but it uses xanthan gum to "thicken" the paste
I used this product for a wedding cake and it worked great tha flavor was awesome thank you will be ordering it again soon thanks
I am so happy that I came across this vanilla beach paste. It is so much cheaper than buying vanilla beans and I am able to get the same vanilla flavor I wanted.
We use this to make the most amazing vanilla fudge and vanilla rum creams! The little specks of vanilla are amazing and add so much to the interest and visual appeal of the products, over just using extract!!!
The Shank's vanilla bean paste is perfect for our custards and cheesecakes at our sweet shop. The paste is thick and rich making for flavorful curds and custard fillings.
Really great vanilla flavor and a little bit goes a long way! Really great way to add a real vanilla flavor without needing to pay for and keep fresh vanilla beans.
Delicious, very good quality vanilla bean paste. Use it on roll cakes and other recipe that calls for vanilla. Wished they come in bigger size.
