The magic of vanilla stays with me, let’s explore. Creamy rich dark and syrupy that smells like liquor Eighty proof vodka and vanilla beans are needed for crème de la crème vanilla extract Who knew that in order to make Ice crème ingredients must first be heated? An oddity, whipping away making it into buttercream Color so pure and ivory? Vanilla is misunderstood I’m a little mixed up. Aromas that bring me back to my childhood Vanillin scent candle so calming Just add homemade vanilla To anything is my conclusion It’s a ventablack liquid Sorry for the confusion All apologies

I love the taste of vanilla. I am not that much of a baker but the one thing I do make is old-fashioned Biscotti cookies (Grandma's recipe) I do like vanilla ice cream too...it just doesn't like me (lol) Sweet poem, Anaya :) Hugs Charlie

So pure ivory and creamy. Ah this poem is so delicious. Absolutely love the way you’ve written. And i must admit im hungry now. Creme de la creme, i love that the most. More than the flavor vanilla i actually love vanilla scented candles and vanilla essence, it gives a very homely smell, that i cant get over. Lovee this creative soul. Goodluck for the contest

My mouth is watering ! You are a bad lady, The descriptions were making my heart flutter, and then I saw the images ! Just searched the house, not a cake or cream anywhere to be found. Sigh :) . Your descriptions are amazing Anaya, I can almost taste that wonderful vanilla and I can definitely smell it. Best for win.

No confusion here, deliciously written. Vanilla is probably my fave ice cream, because you can put just about anything on it. I love the photos you chose. Yummy
