** I love to bake, bake professionally, and have found Mexican Vanilla to be more aromatic and tastier than most brands in the stores. I order it my the case, yes, 12 quarts about every two years. The brand that I buy is 'LaVencedora' and I was introduced to it in Santa Fe, New Mexico. It is available on line by searching the name, try it, you will never use any other vanilla!
