Product Description
Ethyl vanillin is a synthetic flavour molecule, stronger and slightly different from vanillin, at about 99% purity. It does not come from a vanilla bean or from ferulic-acid fermentation.
It is used in confectionery, bakery and dairy flavours at a lower dose than vanillin. It is not a “natural flavour” under typical labelling rules.
When buying, specify ethyl vanillin, assay, and melting point. Do not let it be swapped with the natural vanillin code.

Applications
Dairy
Clean sweet vanilla notes. Label it as synthetic, not natural.
Identity
99% assay and a melting point. A vanilla extract COA will not match.
Bakery
Start below the vanillin dose. Ethyl vanillin is stronger and the flavour peaks differently.
Beverages
Label it synthetic. It is not a vanilla-bean extract.
