Puertorican Vanilla

We use it in everything that requires vanilla. Especially Italian wedding cookies. Cookie batter and icing. People ask what is our trick. They are so good.

Discovered this on a cruise & have been using ever since. One year bought a dozen for Christmas gifts. Amazing secret baking ingredient. Love it:)

Born, raised, educated in PR residing abroad, I pilgrimage to old San Juan to replenish my assortment of vanillas, Guava Panetelas, Besitos de Coco during visits. Online orders are convenient. Vanilla arrived well bubbled wrapped, dry ice pack was empty. Cellophane bag protected Besitos. Panetelas were dry, not moist as usual. Placing sweets in mini styrofoam container w/ ice pack first, then container in shipment box may maintain Panetellas moist.

So worth getting—try flavoring your homemade whipped cream with this and your life will change.

I have been a regular customer since 2010. We honeymooned on Culebra during off season, late September. No gift shops were open on the island. So, at the airport we saw this little gem of a store and grabbed some vanilla for friends and family. Since then, I have ordered a number of different products that are promptly shipped to us in Texas. My sister and mother now also purchase their vanilla. There is always a little something extra thrown in. This time a small bag of chili flakes, which will definitely get used! You cannot go wrong with anything. Our favorites are the vanilla, curry powder, Hot Sauce and jams.
