I really like this store! I have purchased several unique baking items at Vanilla Bean that I haven't been able to find at the grocery store, craft stores or Amazon. Because I've now found so many unique items at Vanilla Bean, I now only purchase baking-type items at Vanilla Bean. I don't even look at other retailers.
Vanilla Bean is my go-to place for purchasing cellophane treat bags and foldable treat boxes. Because my parents and most relatives live outside of Wisconsin, I do lots of baking for their birthdays and for Christmas and ship them treats. The bags and boxes at Vanilla Bean are perfect for packaging up my treats. I've also purchased some unique colors of food coloring as well as melting chocolates at Vanilla Bean.
The staff people are always helpful and know the answers to my questions. The credit card machine at Vanilla Bean is a little slow, so you won't have the speediest transaction at the register. But you're buying sprinkles, so you're in a good mood.
I recommend Vanilla Bean for anything and everything you might need baking!
