Vanilla culinary essence from Foster Clark's in a 28 ml bottle, made with monopropylene glycol, water and artificial vanilla flavouring.
Foster Clark's Vanilla Essence comes in a small 28 ml glass bottle with a gold cap and a blue label carrying the Foster Clark's heart logo, the word Vanilla in English and Arabic, Culinary Essence and a vanilla flower with pods. The back label lists monopropylene glycol (E1520), water, artificial vanilla flavouring and the colour E150d, with the best-before date printed at the top. The side panel names Foster Clark's Products Ltd and carries a nutrition table. As general background, vanilla is a spice from the seed pods of orchids of the genus Vanilla, and most vanilla flavouring used in food today is made with synthetic vanillin rather than the pods. Add a few drops to cake, cupcake and cookie batters with the wet ingredients, stir it into custards and rice puddings as they cool, or whisk it into whipped cream and buttercream.
