Vanilla sugar, the favourite sweet condiment

You use vanilla sugar to give your baking products an extra delicious flavour. In addition to pastry, you can also use it in desserts. Vanilla is a very popular flavour that was used as a seasoning in the past. It originates from Mexico and was introduced to Europe by the Spanish conquerors. Since then, it has become an integral part of our kitchens and almost everybody can appreciate its soft, aromatic taste. At Natural Spices you can buy vanilla sugar online in a package of 500 grams, 5 kilos or 25 kilos. After buying, keep your stock closed and in a cool, dark and dry place. Vanilla sugar is a gluten-free and vegan product.

What is vanilla sugar?

Vanilla sugar may be an immensely popular product, but what is it actually made of? The answer is quite simple. The sugar consists of sugar in combination with real or synthetic vanilla. Natural vanilla is obtained from the fruit of the vanilla orchid, more specifically from the marrow of the fruit. This consists of many different substances, of which vanillin is largely responsible for the typical smell and taste. The vanilla sugar that you can order online at Natural Spices is made using the synthetic aroma vanillin. This artificially produced aroma is a good alternative to the natural variant, because obtaining natural vanilla is a very labour-intensive and therefore expensive process. The aroma is usually obtained using wood or clove oil.
