We use this Vanilla to make vanilla ice cream for a group that is Alcohol sensitive. Sure it isn't as good as the genuine vanilla that we normally use, but for the price and dietary restrictions it is perfect. We have noticed using about 2x the amount you would normally use for real vanilla to achieve a similar flavor profile

I have always been hesitant about imitation vanilla. A snob, really. I told myself I would never use imitation extracts in my products, but times have changed, prices have gone up, and I can no longer justify spending an arm and a leg on pure vanilla. Sad, I know. After scouring the internet reading review after review, I pulled the trigger on Regal imitation. I am officially a believer now. I can’t taste the difference between this and the real thing, even in recipes where vanilla usually shines. I will not hesitate to purchase this again once I run out. Also, you can’t beat the price.

This vanilla is the best I have ever used. It brings flavor to all of my cakes, icings, and desserts. It's priced great too. I won't buy anything else.

With the price of vanilla sky rocketing we decided to try this version. It’s a good substitute and has good flavor. Great in baked goods.

A wonderful alternative to vanilla extract. This imitation vanilla taste decent. Although not even close to actual vanilla extract, would recommend to those who are looking for an economic vanilla flavor product.

Wreaks of chemical; tastes like caramel-colored alcohol. We tried this imitation vanilla a couple of times and then finally dumped it down the drain.

Thank you for your review, Michael! We are sorry that you did not prefer this product. For an alternative that might better suit your needs, try this Shank's 16 fl. oz. Imitation Vanilla instead!

Been using this product for over a year and love it. The price just cannot be beat. I also love that it comes in the big gallon jugs. It adds great flavor to our products despite being an imitation vanilla.

I was hoping to buy vanilla in larger size to save money, but this one just tastes really bad. It smells like play dough and tastes nothing remotely similar to vanilla. I have yet to bring myself to use it again.

Thank you for your review, Liana! We would like to gather more information about your experience with this imitation vanilla. A Customer Solutions Representative will contact you soon.

We were trying to source a cheaper vanilla flavor for our coffee shop, to use in homemade drink syrups and in pasties. Unfortunately this product doesn't quite work for us. The flavor is ALRIGHT, but it has a certain maple/cream soda aspect to it that isn't anything like real vanilla extract or a higher quality vanilla flavoring.

Lots of vanilla for a great price, although I find that I do need to double the usual amount of real vanilla to get desired strength, flavor profile is good though

This Imitation vanilla is the next best thing to pure vanilla. The price is very economical and is as good as Bakers which has a much higher cost.

We decided that the flavor of this vanilla wasn't very strong so we found a separate product on WebstaurantStore that we liked better. It is a good value though if you're just looking for a basic vanilla product.
