VANILLA EXTRACT
Pure vanilla extract is made from vanilla beans, the fruits of a climbing orchid native to Mexico and central America. Vanilla Extract is made by cutting cured vanilla beans into small pieces which are placed in a solution of not less than 35 per cent ethyl alcohol and heated in a percolator. Dextrose, sucrose, or glycerin may be added at the end of the extraction process to prevent precipitation and to preserve the flavor and aroma.
