Now its time to get excited! Altogether my 12 ounces of homemade creamer cost just $0.64. Powdered Sugar, 2 lb bag – $1.50 = $0.19 per ½ cup (I am basing this off the Walmart Best Choice creamer – Coffee Mate would be more expensive, even with a coupon.) Powdered Creamer costs about $4 for a 35 oz container, which is about $0.11 per ounce. Is it cheaper to make your own powdered coffee creamer? Yes! Here is the cost break down, in case you are like me and like to see the proof! It is kind of hard to explain, but try your creamer in your coffee before adding the coconut oil and you will see what I mean.

I tried making this creamer without the coconut oil, and it just wasn’t the same. You may ask, “Why the coconut oil?” Well, this adds that extra bit of creaminess that is oh so yummy in store bought creamers. It adds a nice creamy texture to your coffee that the store bought creamers add. If you like regular, no-flavored coffee creamer, I am confident you will like this base recipe. (I used a mason jar – love them!) Why Coconut Oil The heavier coconut oil tends to settle, so I suggest making this in a container that can be tightly sealed so you can mix it a bit before you use it. I then took a butter knife and broke up any bigger pieces, then shook again. (Since it has been pretty warm here, I did not have to melt my coconut oil – it was already quite ‘liquidy’.) I put the lid on my jar and shook like crazy. Slowly drizzle the melted coconut oil over the dry ingredients. This is the combination that worked the best for me: However, before you start adding all kinds of fun flavors to your creamer, we need to first start with a “base” creamer. I like a little flavor in my coffee, french Vanilla being my fave.

Please share with us how you are using them!As I mentioned before, I am not a “plain creamer” kind of girl. Unfortunately, we cannot take back pots because we are not allowed to reuse them for hygienic reasons. But perhaps you or people in your area can use them as storage for toys, for screws or for other things. PET can be recycled very well. If we look at the various possible packaging in which food may be packaged, PET has the second smallest ecological footprint (just after glass with a deposit, but well ahead of glass without a deposit or for aluminum packaging). For a webstore, however, glass with a deposit is detrimental to the environment because glass is heavier than PET and the shipment and retrieval creates a higher ecological footprint.įurthermore, the PET we use is very safe packaging for food without harmful substances such as BPA. Many of our products are in sturdy PET jars. We opted for this because research had shown that the greatest environmental cost was not the packaging, but damaged packaging. As a result, food is lost and we have to resend the lost products. By making our packaging more robust, we have succeeded in significantly reducing the amount of damages during transit. Despite all precautions, this product may contain traces of these allergens. This product is packaged and/or stored in a facility that also processes products containing nuts, peanuts, mustard, celery, gluten, sesame, soy and sulphite. Half a teaspoon of vanilla powder replaces 1 fresh vanilla pod.ġ00% pure powder from Bourbon vanilla sticks. Substitute vanilla extract for vanilla powder: use half as much vanilla powder as the amount of extract you are supposed to use according to the recipe. Vanilla powder works well in combination with cardamom, chili, cinnamon and cloves. Use vanilla powder in just about any dish you would use cinnamon in. Very surprising is vanilla in savory dishes such as with chicken, shellfish, fruit, fish, eggs, potatoes and chicory. Vanilla powder is delicious in combination with apples, eggs, fish, ice cream, melon, milk, peaches, pears and strawberries. Vanilla powder is most often used in sweet dishes such as cakes, on French toast, fresh fruit, ice cream, in oatmeal, pancakes or waffles. It has that special property of enhancing the flavor of sugary products. Vanilla powder is very aromatic and subtle. It still contains all the flavor and aroma from the vanilla pods. Our Bourbon vanilla powder from Madagascar is 100% natural seeds from vanilla pods.
