Mexican Molina Clear Vanilla 500 ml

Mexican Clear Vanilla is a unique and popular variety of vanilla extract known for its crystal-clear appearance and bold, sweet aroma. Despite its transparent color, it delivers a strong vanilla flavor that’s especially favored in professional baking, particularly in cakes and confections where color matters—like white frostings, wedding cakes, or meringues.

Mexican Clear Vanilla typically has:

• A clean, sweet, intensely vanilla-forward flavor

• A non-darkening formula—ideal when you want flavor without adding color

• A smooth finish with subtle warm notes, often mimicking the natural complexity of real vanilla

• A strong, concentrated aroma, sometimes even more pronounced than traditional dark vanilla extracts

However, it’s important to know that clear vanilla is usually synthetic—made with vanillin, the main flavor compound found in vanilla beans, but not derived from the bean itself. Some higher-end versions from Mexico are blended with real vanilla or use natural flavorings, but most clear vanillas are imitation.

Perfect for:

• Buttercream, whipped frosting, and fondant

• White or light-colored cakes and desserts

• Sugar cookies and pastries where color clarity matters

• Commercial baking where consistency and visual presentation are key
