Why Vanilla Matters Most in a Creami
Most people start with vanilla, and for good reason — it's the foundation. A clean vanilla flavor that survives freezing is harder to find than it sounds. Powders with artificial sweeteners like sucralose tend to get bitter at sub-zero temps. The best vanilla powders use erythritol or monk fruit and have a flavor profile that's rich without being cloying.
