We've used this vanilla in making our KAHLUA.  Use also in home cooking or baking, desserts such as vanilla bean ice cream, cake, cupcakes, or cookies and are a top choice of professional chefs for making desserts such as Creme Brulee. Our beans are also a top pick for home brewers or those who own a brewery or cidery! Homemade KAHLUA or Vanilla extract is also a very popular gift and can be made using a simple vodka infusion method!
