The near total destruction of  Madagascar's vanilla crop by hurricanes and drought has caused worldwide shortages and increased prices for vanilla beans. To ensure that you, our loyal customer, can continue to turn to Watkins for your vanilla needs amid rising prices, Watkins will now offer an established, time-tested imitation vanilla blend, similar to Watkins White Vanilla, but in a dark formula.  By using flavour components that occur naturally in the vanilla bean, Watkins has captured a true, rich, full-bodied vanilla flavour in an imitation formula.  Like our White Vanilla, it shares the bake-proof, freeze-proof, double strength properties of our Original Vanilla but in a naturally dark, rich blend.

Watkins flavour experts have developed a very close match to our Original Double Strength Vanilla, and you will be pleased to know that you will be able to purchase Watkins high quality vanilla flavouring at a more affordable price if you choose. Now we have more vanilla products to offer  you - all under the Watkins brand, so no matter which vanilla you choose, you know you are getting Watkins quality.
