Watkins All Natural Original Gourmet Baking Vanilla with Pure Extract, 8 fl. oz. Bottle, 1-Pack

Gluten free bakery here. This is my go to lemon extract. It taste good and is quality. Very fragrant and easy to use. Easy to bake with. I haven’t used anything else in years. Definitely worth it.

As a small business owner making so many wedding cakes, this stuff is SO good. It retains it's flavor very well when baking, is great in buttercream and smells divine. It comes in bottles with seals and I've never had issues with it leaking during shipping. It is so easy to use and I highly recommend it! I used to buy it by the gallon but would always leak and now the price has gone up. For this price, this is the best!

Good quality product, good ingredients, taste is good. Bottle easy to use, came with the seal, no leakage. I did not use for baking as previously advertised. No sugar as described. Recommended.

I use this Wilton clear vanilla primarily for decorating sugar cookies. Keeping icing bright and white is important. Traditional vanilla extract tends to tint royal icing a beige or off-white color, but this clear version keeps everything looking crisp and clean.Flavor-wise, it's definitely an imitation vanilla, so it doesn’t have the depth or warmth of pure vanilla extract. That said, it still adds a sweet, pleasant vanilla scent and taste—especially once mixed into icing or baked goods. It’s ideal when color matters more than complexity of flavor.Another plus is that the bottle has a narrow spout which helps control the pour and avoid waste. A little goes a long way. I've had no issues with separation or off smells, and the shelf life is awesome.Overall, this is a must-have in my bsking toolkit. I wouldn’t use it for high-end baking where vanilla is a star ingredient, but for cookies, frosting, and cakes that need to stay visually bright—this is my go to every time.Pros:- Keeps icings bright white- Sweet, clean vanilla flavor- Easy to pour and great shelf lifeCons:- Not as deep a flavor as real vanilla- Slight artificial aftertaste if too heavy handed

Excellent quality vanilla that works just as well for cooked and uncooked goods without losing any flavor. We buy 1-2 a month at least (a lot of baking goes on here), but every time it gets shipped to us it either doesn’t have a lid or the lid is off and its only sealed by the plastic seal on top. It’s gotten to the point where we keep our lids when we throw the bottle away

This Vanilla is my go to for all my baking needs. Great taste Good value for the money

Smells and tastes great. Ingredients all seem natural. Bakes well and so far no leaking.

I make root beer cookies (my Nanna's recipe) and use root beer concentrate in it. The one I previously used wasn't available so I bought this one. The flavor is fantastic! One thing different about this compared to others is it has no coloring, so it was clear! That was a surprise to me. Made my cookies look more like a root beer float cookie, but I didn't mind, since we have talked about cutting out food dyes in our house. Worked really well for baking my cookies and the frosting on top. Highly recommend.
