Flavor Profile
Flavorah Smooth Vanilla is the precious vanilla of our line: bright, sweet, and rich, with so much strength that a little lasts a long time.
It is a bright, sweet vanilla with a full profile of rich and smooth notes and a light, slightly fruity aroma.
Smooth Vanilla is a potent flavor, so tread lightly and start lower than you would with most vanillas. It is perfect with creams, bakeries, ice cream, frostings, and cakes. Too much overwhelms a recipe; considering how little you need, its quality more than earns its place.
Create Endless and Indelible Memories with Flavorah
All the flavors that we make at Flavorah are designed for mixing complex, layered recipes for products that may be consumed. Even though this Smooth Vanilla flavor will stand alone with memorable and captivating notes, we believe you will enjoy it most when you blend it with other flavors. It is our mission to create concentrates and extracts that become a powerful tool of flavor art in your culinary palette.
Use this Smooth Vanilla flavoring concentrate to develop your own artistic creations. As you blend it together with other complementary flavor layers, it will develop nuances and notes that either soften or strengthen according to your desire.
The layers of a completed flavoring profile can come from another Flavorah concentrate, such as Sweet Cream or Strawberry, or from the medium you choose to mix it with. Try mixing Flavorah in ice cream, frosting, coffee creamers, or a creamy cocktail.
Flavorah makes flavor art into an expression of individual perception and beauty. Our flavoring is designed to empower you to communicate this balance of potent perfection with the sense of taste and smell. Our Smooth Vanilla flavoring can harness the passing moments of enjoyment that will be experienced by everyone who samples your creation.
Flavorah is a product meant for the artist who wants to be tasted not heard, and smelled but not seen.
We know success when we see the satisfaction on the faces of our customers who create their own recipes. We delight in seeing our customers' recipes making the world a more bountiful experience for everyone to enjoy.

Recipe Ideas
Velvet Strawberry Roll: Strawberry, Pound Cake, Cream, Sweet Cream, Strawberry Smash, Smooth Vanilla, Sweetness, Marshmallow, Lemon, and Vanilla Bean at about 54:32:14:12:7:6:5:5:4:4, a light sponge rolled around strawberry cream.

Mixing Notes
Because Smooth Vanilla is potent, use it as the smallest number in a recipe and let Cream or Vanilla Bean carry the volume.
Building a Recipe
Start with a small amount, taste, and build in small steps, testing in your own batch. As a featured vanilla it sits toward the middle of each range; as a vanilla accent, lower. Set the ratios first, then adjust the total.
