Jaydan, Red Seal Chef

As a chef, I am always looking out for new, stand-out products to enhance flavour and add distinction to my cuisine. This vanilla is a game-changer.

I tried Baking Barn's vanilla in glycerin and find it has the authentic vanilla taste without the bitterness that I have found in other extracts. Baking Barn's vanilla works really good in coffee and flavouring spirits.​

Baking Barn products are a great addition to any recipe to take it to the next level! So versatile! So delicious!

I would love to recommend an amazing locally made product from the Baking Barn. I've started using this vanilla in some of my baking. It is so sweet & this formula is alcohol free, and is amazing right from the bottle! I've tried it right in my coffee and for flavouring in buttercream. Sooo good! And it's the real stuff!

"Most vanilla extract has that alcohol burn. This is a wonderful product & so full of natural flavours. I especially like the Madagascar vanilla powder. Really innovative & something I could really create with. Well done!"

About us

Our family’s love of all things vanilla led to creating the most natural, delicious, alcohol free, pure vanilla extract! We wanted vanilla that didn’t bake out at high heat, or change the taste of our favorite recipes. Each batch takes 1 full year before the perfect blend is achieved, so after many years of tasting, the Baking Barn was born! Our vanilla extract is made from the world’s best Madagascar vanilla beans and amazing, sweet tasting glycerin for an unsurpassed baking experience! Our ingredients are organically sourced and environmentally & socially sustainable to bring you peace of mind! Fun fact: the packaging showcases it’s naturally imperfect beauty! From our hands to yours, Baking Barn vanillas are sure to become tradition!
