I finally got around to trying french vanilla and its really freaking good .I dont know why i havent tried it sooner . Its super similar to vanilla custard though . I get more of french vanilla ice cream then french vanilla coffee . This is confusing now . DOes anyone know what its intended to be ? The name french vanilla is pretty vague considering there are multiple things that are french vanila

I'd assume that it's just supposed to be vanilla... not coffee or ice cream, just vanilla. I don't know what the 'french' part means. Maybe a specific type of vanilla, or way of processing vanilla.

That's like saying strawberry is vague ....it's French Vanilla.
French Vanilla is a buttery creamy vanilla, as opposed to 'bean' vanilla, which is a cleaner, sharper vanilla.
Haven't you ever had French Vanilla ice cream? It tastes waaaay different than regular vanilla (I'm a 'vanilla nut'...if I know anything it's vanilla...boring, but heh, I know what I like).

Maybe its the brands i have or my taste buds or something but french vanilla coffee doesnt taste like french vanilla ice cream to me . The french vanilla ice cream i have in my freezer really doesnt look or taste different then regular vanilla ice cream . I always wondered why they called it french vanilla ice cream . Maybe its because i buy the cheap brand . I love french vanilla coffee though .

Oops-- sorry Leo...a thousand pardons. I got the wrong name too...thats what I get for laughing at icedog.:laugh:

No problem. :)
This got me curious though...
From Wikipedia:
The term French vanilla is often used to designate preparations that have a strong vanilla aroma, contain vanilla grains and may also contain eggs (especially egg yolks). The appellation originates from the French style of making vanilla ice cream with a custard base, using vanilla pods, cream, and egg yolks. (The egg yolks are essential to French vanilla ice cream, as they provide its signature pale yellow color; whereas ordinary vanilla ice cream contains no eggs and, thus, is white.)

I like vanilla bean ice cream much more than french, but I'll still probably pick up some of the FV from Capella's... I love using various vanillas in my recipes, and I love the Cap. Vanilla Cupcake (I've been using that one too much... almost out of it).
