Vanilla essence is a synthetic, alcohol-free vanilla flavouring made with water, glycerin, and vanillin. One metric cup (250 ml) of vanilla essence weighs about 230 grams or 8.11 ounces, slightly heavier than vanilla extract thanks to its water base. Most recipes call for it by the teaspoon, where 1 tsp weighs around 4.6 grams.

Recipes often list vanilla essence in teaspoons, but bottles label volume in millilitres or fluid ounces. This page converts between teaspoons, grams, millilitres, and cups so you can hit the right amount with whatever you have on hand.

Pure vanilla extract has a stronger, more complex flavour than essence and contains alcohol. Swap teaspoon-for-teaspoon, or scale back to about 0.8 tsp extract per 1 tsp essence if you want a lighter vanilla note. See what 15 grams of vanilla extract is in cups.

Vanilla bean paste is far more intense than essence and carries visible seeds. Swap teaspoon-for-teaspoon as an upgrade, or scale paste back to 3/4 tsp per 1 tsp essence if you want a closer flavour match. See what 15 grams of vanilla bean paste is in cups.

Parisian essence is a caramel browning and flavouring liquid at the same weight per cup (230 g). It colours and adds a malty note rather than vanilla flavour, so the two do different jobs. See what 15 grams of parisian essence is in cups.
