How to Use
Stir one packet into cake batter, cookie dough, or whipped cream in place of vanilla extract, blending it in before baking or whipping so the sugar dissolves evenly. It also works whisked directly into custards and puddings. Keep unopened packets in a cool, dry pantry away from moisture, and reseal an opened box tightly to keep the remaining packets dry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Dr. Oetker Vanilla Sugar contain allergens?
The packets contain sugar and artificial flavor, with no major allergens listed by Dr. Oetker. The product is packed in a facility that may also handle other baking ingredients. Anyone with a food allergy should read the printed label on the box before use, since ingredient lists and facility notices can change between production runs.
How should I store Dr. Oetker Vanilla Sugar?
Keep unopened packets in a cool, dry pantry away from moisture and direct sunlight, ideally below 75 F (24 C). Once the box is opened, reseal it tightly so the remaining packets stay dry, since sugar can clump if exposed to humidity. Unopened packets typically stay usable well past a year from the printed date.
Can I substitute Dr. Oetker Vanilla Sugar for vanilla extract?
Yes. One 0.32 oz (9 g) packet works in place of about one to two teaspoons of vanilla extract in most cake, cookie, and custard recipes. Because the packet is fine sugar with vanilla flavor rather than a liquid, you may want to slightly reduce the sugar the recipe otherwise calls for.
How many packets are in one box of Dr. Oetker Vanilla Sugar?
Each box contains 6 individual 0.32 oz (9 g) packets, for 1.92 oz (54 g) total. Real Prime Deals also offers Pack of 3, Pack of 6, and Pack of 12 boxes for bakers who go through vanilla sugar regularly, so a household can stock up once instead of reordering single boxes each time.
