As you all know, I LOVE to bake and I was thrilled when I was asked to review the Nielsen-Massey Vanillas and Flavorings. Nielsen Massey has been known as a producer of top quality vanillas for over a century. The company was founded in 1907. They have always been, and still are, a family-owned business and are now run by the third generation of the Nielsens. The line of Nielsen Massey products is extensive - with vanillas from Madagasar, Tahiti and Mexico; vanilla powders, sugars and pastes and flavorings including pure chocolate extract, pure almond extract, pure orange extract, pure coffee extract – just to name a few. Whatever your baking needs — Nielsen Massey has an extract for you!
I decided to use the Nielsen Massey Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla and bake my Old Fashioned Hide It Cake. The vanilla was wonderful and really stood out. You can see my recipie for Hide It Cake HERE
I also used the Vanilla Bean Paste they sent me to add to my whipped cream whenever I made it. Not only does it add a great vanilla flavor it also puts little flecks of vanilla bean paste throughout the cream which adds great visual interest.
Nielsen Massey website has lots of information about all of their products and a wonderful section packed full of great recipes. If you want to get inspired, click here to check out their recipe section: Nielsen Massey Recipes. Here you will see recipes ideas from appetizers and baked goods to drinks and entrees. My favorite was the Ribs with Smoky Vanilla BBQ Sauce!
Cooking and baking is so enjoyable for me and I love to use quality products. The Nielsen Massey line of vanillas and flavorings will help you create all kinds of flavorful foods!
