Last year at about this time, I was actually introduced to Beanilla by winning a giveaway myself. And let me tell you….this company’s vanilla will change your life. Or at least, it will definitely change your baking!!

For today’s giveaway, Beanilla is giving away some of their favorites:

• One (4 oz.) bottle 2X Mexican vanilla extract
• 5 Madagascar Vanilla Beans
• 5 Uganda Vanilla Beans
• One jar of 3-Fold Tahitian Vanilla Paste

I have had the great pleasure over the last year of cooking with Beanilla’s vanilla beans, extracts and pastes. And let me assure you that the quality of their ingredients seriously makes a difference that you can taste. (I will never go back to the dry, overpriced beans from the grocery store again!!) Their beans are fresh, pliable, huge, and amazingly aromatic. The extract is wonderfully rich. And the paste is probably my new favorite vanilla ingredient! It is packed with a zillion vanilla bean seeds and lots of great flavor — so fun to play with in recipes! Such great products.

So all of you vanilla lovers must check out Beanilla! And of course, enter the giveaway below! :)
