Related to Vanilla Extract

Vanilla Bean Paste

Paste is denser (310 g vs 220 g per cup) and carries seeds for the speckled look. Swap teaspoon-for-teaspoon; expect a stronger vanilla note and a slight sugar boost from the paste base. See our Vanilla Bean Paste converter.

Vanilla Essence

Essence is synthetic and milder, with a single-note flavour rather than extract's complex aroma. Close in weight (230 g vs 220 g per cup); use up to 1.25 tsp essence per 1 tsp extract for a closer match. See our Vanilla Essence converter.

Maple Syrup

Last-resort swap. Adds warm caramel sweetness rather than vanilla. Fine in oatmeal cookies, pancakes, and granola; avoid in delicate custards or buttercream where vanilla character is doing the heavy lifting. See our Maple Syrup converter.
