Per reviews, it seems extract has more flavor. Why use paste? For the flecks to be seen? Thanks.

I disagree. The paste has more vanilla flavor. Extract has more alcohol flavor. I exclusively use this vanilla bean paste and I love the flavor it adds to all my baked goods.

Not being familiar with vanilla bean paste, is this a liquid or paste texture? Also, is it measured the same as regular vanilla when using in recipes?

It is a little runnier than a true paste, a bit thicker than honey. I love it. It gives a much more pronounced vanilla flavor. It is fantastic in cookies. It does have a bit of sugar in it but just tons of true vanilla beans. I use the same measurement, sometimes adding even more just because I love vanilla. I always have this in my pantry.

Vanilla as ingredients 3 & 4? More likely 4&5 since there IS alcohol in extract - quality sounds dicey with much filler before vanillas - what gives?

I can’t answer to the ingredient list or proportions but can say I’ve found this to be a wonderful product especially for receipes where I want the flecks of vanilla bean to show (ice cream, whipped cream, vanilla sponge cake, pound cake). It has a heavenly aroma and deep flavor. I appreciate not having to scrape a vanilla bean when recipes call for that.

Does it contain alcohol ??

Next-Level Vanilla – I’m Never Going Back to Extract!

This vanilla bean paste is a game-changer. I will never go back to regular vanilla extract. Here’s why I’m obsessed:Incredible Flavor and Aroma: The flavor is rich, complex, and delicious. It’s so much more fragrant and flavorful than regular vanilla extract. It elevates everything you put it in.Real Vanilla Bean Specks: You can actually see the tiny vanilla bean specks in the paste, which not only looks beautiful in your recipes but also adds an extra layer of authenticity and quality. No more scraping vanilla bean pods.Easy to Use: You can substitute it 1:1 for vanilla extract.Great Value: While it’s a bit pricier than regular extract, I think the quality makes it. Also, I don’t compare it to buying other vanilla extracts, I compare it to the price and hassle of using real vanilla beans.Try it! You won't be disappointed!

Great for vanilla ice cream making

I love this for using in homemade vanilla ice cream. It adds a rich flavor that is so much better than other vanillas I’ve tried and the bean specs add an attractive look. Nice glass bottle that I find easy to pour from even with a wide opening.
