Sri Lankan Vanilla Extracted in Dark Rum | 3.75 oz.

Exotic, Bold, and Deeply Aromatic

Take your holiday baking and cozy autumn recipes to a new level with Sri Lankan Vanilla Extracted in Dark Rum. Vain Foods has sourced exceptionally rare vanilla beans from the tropical highlands of Sri Lanka and paired them with the deep, molasses-rich profile of Dark Rum. This combination results in a robust extract that stands up beautifully to heavy spices and rich chocolates.

The Flavor Profile

Sri Lankan vanilla is distinct from its Madagascar cousins, offering a bolder, "spicier" profile that is perfectly mirrored by the dark rum base:

• Primary Notes: Dark chocolate, aged molasses, and warm brown sugar.
• Undertones: Subtle hints of tobacco, dried figs, and earthy clove.
• Finish: A long, lingering warmth that provides a sturdy backbone to baked goods.

Why This Extract is a Baker's Favorite

• The Bonus Bean: Every 3.75 oz amber bottle includes the original whole vanilla bean. It continues to release oils and flavor as long as it’s submerged, making your extract more complex over time.
• Dark Rum Base: Unlike vodka-based extracts, the dark rum adds its own layer of caramelized sweetness and spice, creating a 1+1=3 effect for your taste buds.
• All-Natural Integrity: Vain Foods uses a slow-extraction process with zero added sugars, corn syrup, or artificial colorings.

Creative Kitchen Uses

• Spiced Holiday Treats: The perfect partner for gingerbread, pumpkin pie, or snickerdoodles. The rum notes highlight the cinnamon and nutmeg beautifully.
• Rich Confections: Use it in chocolate lava cakes, fudgy brownies, or a decadent chocolate ganache.
• Glazes & Sauces: Stir into a butter-rum sauce for bread pudding or use it to glaze roasted sweet potatoes and carrots.
• Warm Beverages: Add a splash to hot apple cider, chai tea, or a "Dirty" Chai latte for an instant gourmet upgrade.
