PreemaVanilla Essence - 28ML

Good strength of flavour. I used this product to make almond flavour icing and baked a cherry and almond cake using it. The bottle is slightly larger than the one I normally get from the supermarket. Easy to open. I feel it is good value.

Delivered on time. Quite small in size, not as strong flavoured as I thought. Worth buying if you are using it in small food products. As the vanilla taste does get lost in bigger quantities.

I used this today to make marzipan for a stollen cake and was very careful not to overdo the dosage. I added it in small increments (1/8 tsp at a time) . As I neared the desired taste I could detect it was starting to taste a little chemically and so stopped adding. I would really have liked the almond taste to be a bit stronger but it was OK.When the cake was baked the chemical edge had gone leaving a pleasant, but not really full, almond taste. Having said that, for my first ever try at marzipan, I was quite happy and will use it again. Next time I will be a bit bolder as I feel the baking process does reduce the tendency to taste a little artificial.

Product was used to make my first ever cheesecake, and both the aroma and flavour are absolutely divine! Flavour's quite strong so you could possibly use slightly less than a recipe suggests - always a plus point when we're all trying to economise these days, but this product's very well priced. And what a great range of flavours to choose from! Definately planning to try out a good few more!

I never leave bad reviews so it pains me to have to do so. I ran out of orange essence and my son wanted a chocolate orange cake for his birthday, I was being lazy and thought I'd cut corners by using an essence instead of grating oranges and making an orange sugar syrup, that was a big mistake! I've used the dr oetker orange essence before and found it really good but as I couldn't find it in my local supermarket and it was my sons birthday in 2 days I knew I needed to find something for next day delivery. I stumbled upon this and didn't read the reviews, again big mistake! I just looked at the star rating and assumed it was good. I used the whole bottle trying to get a hit of orange but that hit never appeared. A whole bottle in 1 cake and you literally can only taste the chocolate cake and butter icing even though I also put it in the icing. Luckily my son is easy to please and although disappointed it wasn't chocolate orange was still happy with the cake. When you buy a product you expect it to do what it says it does and this product does not and is an epic fail. Do not waste your money on this product! Positive note it did arrive next day as stated but that's the only positive

Wish it actually state on the product discriptioj that contains E5120 Propylene glycol. It's artificial flaivour. Excellent product if you don't have to worry about allergies and chemical sensitivities

I have bought one of these before, and it was great, had a lovely almond smell and gave a nice almond flavouring when added.Though this, my second bottle, has a very chemically smell, which transfers somewhat to whichever it is added to, along with the almond flavour.*EDIT*As I have read other comments since posting mine, regarding this being a concentrate, which I didn't know, and judging by my first bottle, never had reason to think about.I have used in a much smaller amount, and the taste is excellent.Read the instructions on the bottle unlike me, as it says, ¼ tsp for every 8oz.
