- You lot have very keen eye-sight and are very observant and often comment on the vanilla that I use in my videos. It got me thinking about vanilla and what's on offer out there vs. what you can make yourself. So I made a video to explain a few things! Hope you enjoy it! x

A lot of people who make homemade vanilla extract with vodka recommend leaving it to rest for 6 months to 2 years, depending on the amount of beans used. If you do decide to let it sit that long, please make sure all of the beans are covered in the alcohol or glycerin to avoid mold forming. What's great about homemade vanilla extract is that those same beans will continue to release flavors for YEARS. So feel free to let it rest then decant, refilling with alcohol or glycerin over and over for decades! Bear in mind that every time you decant some and refill the Source, you will need to start the waiting period all over again. Vanilla extract made from alcohol, once decanted, can last as long as you want, too. I personally did a 2 cup jar full of vodka with 5 Grade A Madagascar beans, cut in half, letting it rest for 6 months. Then I'm going to decant it into another jar when it's done and use as my supply for the year. Like cinnamon sticks, vanilla beans really are a perpetual extract source. :D
I use bourbon to extract my vanilla & I'm very happy with it.
@@catmom1322 I've also heard of people using spiced rums and loving it :D I have not heard of bourbon yet, but it's nice to hear about it being good! Thanks for sharing that :3
I wonder if you can educate us on chocolate next! The different kinds of chocolate and their uses, ways to temper chocolate, etc.! It would be super helpful! x
Yes, please, chocolate thank you
Hi jemma I'm 13 years old and have been watching your videos for a bit over a year now and absolutely love your shop and everything you bake. You are like a role model to me! I bake almost every single day and hope to open a small shop much like yours when I'm older.
Please never stop making these videos,
Crumbs and doilies + cupcake jemma enthusiast,
Ella from California
I love how you teach us the whole history of vanilla- it's like learning at school but in a much more fun way
This is by far the best video about vanilla and homemade vanilla extract that I've ever seen!
It's the worst, since she has left the tip of the pods above the vodka, they're going to rot.
This is my third video on the making of vanilla extract. The first said not to use it for at least 2 years, the next included a recipe for lemon and orange rind with it and said minimum of 6 months before using, and now this one says a few weeks to 2 months. I wonder if it is like fine wine and only gets better with age.
Unfortunately I really dislike any background music with instructional videos! I always found it annoying at a dinner party or discussion evening when the host had music playing and we were all trying to talk over it or ignore it. I think I'm just too old.
Marg Des 😉
@@freudzwetdream Probably not since her resting time is so short. Most people let it rest for anywhere from 6 to 24 months. Her 2 week timeline and probable disposable of the beans afterwards might mean they don't rot. I do agree that she should have mentioned that AND mentioned that vanilla beans are a perpetual extract and that covering them and letting them rest for 6+ months will yield extract for like 20 years..
It really isn't very informational. It's more like a video about the different types of vanilla flavorings out there than a teaching about how to make it.. I prefer Mary's Nest video about making extracts myself. Much more of a deep dive and she goes over a lot of information that is critical for homemade extracts like covering the beans and how the beans can continue to yield for YEARS..
Perfect timing! My parents just came back from Indonesia and they brought me a little bag of vanilla pods!
Lucky gal.
The most delicious vanilla I've ever used was made with spiced rum, steeped for 18 months before using. The depth of flavor is amazing. My cakes and frostings were always good, but with the vanilla made with spiced rum....they were taken to another level of deliciousness. Everyone I've given some too, refuse to go back to vodka based vanilla. Try it.
Is spiced rum a product you can already buy or do you make this yourself? If so, do you have a recipe?
I've always used Vanilla essence, and it did always tasted fine. But yesterday I got my hands on real vanilla extract (Nielsen-Massey Madagascar vanilla extract).. And now I can't wait to use it!🤩 And oooh the smell...!🥰😍
I didn't expect to enjoy watching this as much as I did. Informative and eloquently presented video - thank you.
very informational and useful video. thank you Jemma for sharing! 😊
You know I was browsing amazon for the perfect Vanilla extract! Opened UA-cam so that I could see the comment section because a lot of questions are asked about the vanilla you use.
Thank you, Jemma :D
I've been making my own vanilla extract for a few years now and the smell and flavor of it is SO much better than store-bought!
missalexx1982 did you use the same method with Jemma?
Where do you get your vanilla beans/pods?
Thank you Jemma for giving us the best video instructions how to make vanilla extract.
This was reaaaally useful!! Thank you very much! I'm definitely making homemade Vanilla extract bottles following these methods to give away this Christmas!
love your videos Jemma! They're very informative without being boring, very entertaining. Thanks for all your hard work ! :)
I recently started my jar of vanilla extract. I did it like you showed, vanilla beans in vodka, but then i poured some left over, store bought, extract in as well to speed up the process and make it a little more intense
Wow! Vanilla extract with supercritical fluid extraction (CO2), it's cool, fancy and technological, yay! Mind telling me/us the band? I didn't know it exist. :)
After the shooting, the kitchen was smelling like heaven, I guess.
Love your videos Jemma! Thank you for making a non alcoholic extract 👍😃
thank you so much for this video Jemma! I'm italian and vanilla extract is quite impossible to find in my country. watching english/american recipes was sometimes frustrating for the wide use of vanilla extract in them and I was always like *WHY* until you made this video. love uuu
You're such a talented baker! I absolutely adore your recipes!
Excellent video! Vanilla is the BEST flavor! I have a Southern Baking cookbook that suggests making vanilla extract with bourbon and several recipes call for it. I’ve been making vanilla for years, and make it with vodka, and a separate one with bourbon. When I bake, I almost always double the vanilla called for, although modern recipes are calling for larger amounts. Unless you are a super taster, few people are going to taste a 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla!
Great video! I tried the alcohol version but I did not know about the glycerin. I have some in the house and will try this to give as gifts to my family that do not care for the alcohol version. I so appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
Yes please!!
Thank you for this great video!
The only thing it's missing is possibly unique to scandinavia, but it deserves a mention.
We have something called "Vanilla sugar", which is basically powdered sugar with powdered vanilla in. It's horrible, but it is a thing.
I'm from Indonesia but finding good quality vanilla extract in supermarkets is very hard here :") Usually one can find the essence instead, whether it's liquid, paste, and even powder (which is more commonly used here). It's kinda ironic that we export vanilla a lot but finding them here is really hard..
Fortunately, there have been some companies that provide good quality vanilla pods & extracts online, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic!
+Tresna Waluya online shop banyak yang jual sekarang yang halal Mas 😊
+Tresna Waluya lya benar itu
hi saya dari malaysia. boleh bagi nama company yang jual online vanila yang non alkohol?
+Tresna Waluya waktu itu liat di lazada ada sih, vanilla bean paste gitu
I'm guessing it's the demand and supply. It's fairly inexpensive for someone using sterling pound but for us Southeast Asians vanilla extract can be extremely pricey.
I would like to see the result of the homemade vanilla extracts later. Thank you for sharing. :)
In Denmark we can get the vanilla pods, from Madagaskar mostly, and vanilla sugar. Extract is not common at all. BUT I just got a big bag of vanilla pods and some vanilla paste from mother-in-law in Tahiti, and I have to say that is THE best vanilla I have ever tried. Strong clear flavour, but unfortunately expensive to get my hands on normally.
Love the extra info about the vanilla on top of how to make ones own. Thank you
Omg, LOVE vanilla sugar!!! It's SO nice sprinkled over chopped up strawberries 😍
Super! I've always wondered about this. Where I live oddly enough all I can get is essence and pods. No extract. Definitely going to make some vanilla sugar!
i was just came from the shop wandering in baking section looking and thinking which vanilla type is the best then gone home and just noticed ur video ...very informative thank u gemma
I *HAVE* always wondered about what vanilla extract you use! I noticed it was very syrupy.
I like to make my own vanilla extract using the alcohol method you demonstrated. I’m making a large batch right now to give out for Christmas!
Thanks for the tips, Jemma! Vanilla pods cost a fortune here in the Philippines and I've seen some that are small, shrunk, and kind of dry unlike the pods you had in the video. Thank you for giving us the tips on what quality pods to use. can't wait to make this in the future when I see good quality vanilla pods.
I'm surprised we don't grow them in the Philippines. Bakit kaya?
Excellent video! I also was intrigued by the clear vanilla...now we know.
Thank you for this video! In Germany I was only able to find vanilla butter, and the pods, but I wasn't sure how to use the pods, so you saved me!
Very useful video Jemma... I've always been curious about vanilla extract. Thanks!
A really helpful tutorial to know more about vanilla. Thanks, Jemma! My mum used vanilla essence, too, when I was little, I guess that was the only vanilla flavour readily available in the market... she will flip out if she learns we can make our own extract ;-)
Great vanilla tips!
Have never made my own extract before but might give it a try now! 😄
Great video Gemma! I have a 6 week old vanilla extract tucked away at the moment. I think I'm going to leave it for another few months to really let it diffuse all the gorgeous vanillay flavour. I have a few beans left over so I might give the glycerine version a try too.
Most helpful video I've ever seen! Thanks a lot! Been wondering about vanilla..
Homemade vanilla is so delicious! I make mine with white rum.
Excellent video. I order some beans from native vanilla and can't wait to get started on my vanilla extract.
ABSOLUTELY LOVE all your videos : ) even the random "listen and learn" videos. I am a big fan of you Cupcake Jemma! Thank you for all your marvelous tips, tricks, recipes and inspiration : )
Hello ! I Come from Reunion Island which is French and near Madagascar and we produce one of the best vanilla. Concerning the beans, it's actually more flavored the drier the bean is. The longest they stay in the trunks, the more it has time to naturally develop its taste. The big squishy beans are actually perfumed and have no taste at all. May be you should try and compare the too and then decide for your self which you prefer. :) Have a nice day !
you are amazing!!! I always wanted to know to make it without alcohol!
thank you Gemma for the vanilla extract recipes. great can wait to try them for myself.
thanks for making the non-alcohol vanilla extrat im so excited can't wait to try it
i love your recipes 😍😍
Thanks so much for this video! I've been researching so much on vanilla, trying to guess what the differences were! This is great!! Thanks Jemma!
didn't know about vanilla with glycerin i will try it. Vainilla in sugar is awesome! i always have a jar in my business, and i use it for baking of for coffee :) quite good actually. thanks Jemma this was a quite useful video
I'm from Madagascar , and it's a good thing you mentionned the work that comes before the final vanilla product ! Love you Jemma xx
I love that you mentioned that you can use the husks for things!
If you're using melted butter or heating milk, you can also pop the husks in for a bit to infuse the vanilla flavour :)
I live in Sweden and its actually pretty hard sometimes to find vanilla extract but vanilla powder is actually fairly common and cheap, and it works just as the extract and I think you only need half of what the recipe says, so if it's says 1 teaspoon you will only need 1/2 teaspoon :)
What a brilliant vanilla education. I will be baking a huge chocolate and vanilla cake for my sister's birthday this Saturday. I was going to use my usual vanilla essence. But no! I'm doing my online shop at the moment and I have just ordered vanilla extract. You'd be proud of me Jemma. :D
.
One of my favorite videos you've done! And I LOVE them all!! I learned so much! Thanks Jemma!!!
This video is really great!!! I really love the fact you provided about vanilla!
Thank you for making that video! I was really intrigued by your CO2-extracted vanilla extract. Also, didn't know you could use glycerine instead of alcohol :)
Thanks so much for this. I'm always struggling to find good quality vanilla extract where I live. But knowing how to make it myself using vodka, I will most certainly make some before my baking season starts
Great video... Thanks... You mention the CO2 infusion method. Did you try using a whipper siphon and whipper gas? I often do that for adding spicy notes to booze, and I was wondering if that would work well?
Great video and love your video Recently I made some extract using Sri Lanka Vanilla beans. The extract was amazing, the flavor was mix Cocoa scent, a hit of resins and dates. I used them for many recipes. The beans were great, I bought those beans from eBay, (a seller called "purevanillabeans" ). 1Kg for $270 which was so cheap compared to others, but still lot of money. To be honest I used them for many purposes still they were very good and enough for my Christmas recipes as well.
Amazing video! Very informative and not at all pretentious. Well done Jemma! x
Thank you! Happy Holidays!
+CupcakeJemma you are a saint! I was avoiding to eat vanilla flavored food because of the vanilla extract, I don't ingest any alcohol and I was sad because most extracts or essences has a huge amount of alcohol in it. Your alcohol free recipe will help me a lot. Thank you so much!
Oh god thank you, that is exactly what I needed ❤️
(we don't have any vanilla extract in russia so tyvm)
Thanks a lot for your homemade vanilla extract recipe! I am so going to try the non alcoholic extract
I love to use spiced rum and Bourbon. I feel like they make the vanilla more robust and rich vanilla flavor. I love using the spiced rum vanilla for spice cakes or anything pumpkin.
Do you have a recipe for making spiced rum vanilla?
I actually make vanilla extract from 90% vodka and about 10% bourbon (gives it a nice flavor) as Christmas gifts. Start it in early October and it's ready to go for the holiday!
I would take that over a crappy candle any day.
hi jemma, thanks for the vid... vanilla extract is expensive online, and as you say, very reasonably priced in the uk. I am abroad, so I took to making my own, and can't wait to use it!
Wow! Interesting
Thanks for taking out the time to do this 👍👍👍👍
I made several extracts as holiday gifts this year. The same technique works with citrus, mint, etc.
@AK April Would you explain how you would use citrus, say I have Japanese yuzu or keffir lime, and make an extract. Do I put the sliced fruit in vodka in glass containers and let them sit--for how long? Do you have a recipe?
a bit random for your channel but I would love to see a video all about your tattoos
me too
its such a good idea, her tattos are so cool
she answers a question about them on her Ask Me Anything video.
Please make a video for your Bischoff cupcakes! I went on a holiday and visited your shop last month and the cupcakes were amazing!! Best cupcakes I have ever had!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, this has been fantastic
This was such an interesting video. I really enjoyed it and learnt a lot 👍😃
This is great - thanks for the information Jemma!
Very nice! Thank you for your in depth video. It was perfect for my needs.
WOW!!!! You know so much about vanilla!!!!!!!! Love it!
Super informative! Really appreciate the detail and technicalities!
Thanks Jemma for the awesome Vanilla Tips and Info!
Thank you.....some information I did not know....love learning ❤️
Hi Jemma thanks for making this video I'm definitely trying the glycerin vanilla extract love ur videos xx
I love making vanilla extract, and especially vanilla sugar, it's the best
Thank you for this video Jemma! It's really helpful!
Hi Jemma, it was really great to meet you and Dane when I visited in July last year.
I mate of mine is a Michelin star chef (for the last 30 years), and he gave me a very easy Vanilla paste recipe. Of course, you want really good quality beans. You make a simple sugar syrup allow it to cool and then chuck it in the old Magimix with about 12 Vanilla beans. Provcess it into a very very fine paste. This is intense, so you only need a little, and it keeps in a jar in the fridge for months and months. Brill!
Hope you and the team are all keepîng safe from the CCP virus thingy! Hope to see you soon.
Do you have a written recipe for this? (Sugar/water ratio of the simple syrup) Can you use brown sugar? How long does the paste last in the fridge, etc. Thanks in advance.
I bought some biscoff rocky road from your shop on Saturday! Very nice 😊
This was very useful and tempted to try making my own vanilla extract! Would you be able to do an update video on how the vanilla extract is when it's ready? Love your videos xx
Jemma looks GORGEOUS here. New tattoos? Her clothes? No idea, but she's just beautiful
So helpful! I'm so happy that you showed us how to make the alcohol-free one 😊 Thanks Jemma!
There is a small producer of vanilla in the US called Charles Baldwin and Sons. They have been making vanilla for over 130 years. It’s top shelf. They have all those forms. Been using it for over ten years. Only buy Nielsen Massey if I need Tahitian vanilla for whipped cream.
Jemma! You should make a baking video using the vanillas you've made in your kitchen two months from now! :)
Awesome vid! So informative and simple. Love your accent too. Please do a follow up vid showing the results of your vanilla bean bottles and make two recipes using each of the vanilla methods you've demonstrated please. But I'd like to know more about this co2 vanilla extract and why it's so clear in colour and consistency. And more about the company behind it. Perhaps show us a tour around their factory if possible. So intriguing. Thanks 😊
Thanks for the recipes ☺️ I have a bottle glycerine left over and i didn't know what to do with it. So I will make vanilla extract now 😍.
Absolutely brilliant video! Would love to see more like this with other ingredients. Vanilla is incredible. Muchly underrated ingredient! I've tried some Tahitian Vanilla and it was incredible, bit more expensive but worth it.
This video is so useful : ) thank you
I adore all of ur amazing bakes
I'm using vanilla paste, and it's the best 😻👌🏻 , very concentrated flavour
AWESOME! Very informative and useful, thanks! Bunches👍💯😉
You are fantastic!!!!! Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
Good to know about the vanilla bean pod in sugar! 👍😄
Very informative video. thanks for the detailed explanation, I sure learned some. thanks for this awesome video :)
Great informational video Jemma !! Thanks !!
I just looked online, and found vanilla powder! I haven't been able to find this in stores where I live, save for one store that was actually next door to my house. Sadly, they went out of business. I have been missing it. Thank you for reminding me!
thanxs for the video jemma
more than 6 months ago i made the one with vodka witch i still haven't used
i didnt know about using glycerin, im going to try it with that as well,as it seems a little bit thicker than the vodka one
here in Australia we also have vanilla with the grinder which i love😀
