Vanilla color is a rich off-white tint, as well as a medium pale shade of yellow. The first recorded use of Vanilla as a color name came much later than Chocolate, in A A Aoys John Maerz and Morris Rea Paul’s A Dictionary of Color, published in 1930. Meanwhile, vanilla, used in reference to a culinary flavor, began appearing in European cookbooks in the 17th century, most commonly in recipes for drinking chocolate.
Its other early use is in ice cream; famously, Thomas Jefferson brought back a handwritten recipe for vanilla ice cream from Paris in the 1780s. But, in the days before mechanical refrigeration, ice cream was a rare treat, limited to aristocrats who could afford to harvest and store natural ice or enjoy it outside the home. Still, the prevailing theory is that because one of vanilla’s earliest uses was as a flavoring for ice cream, it became associated with the off-white color of cream, the main ingredient in ice cream.
What is intriguing, however, is that this color/flavor association was not established until the early 20th century, long after the 1858 discovery and 1874 synthesis of artificial vanillin, which is the most important aroma molecule of the two hundred or so that make up the natural vanilla flavor. Vanillin, whether produced from petrochemicals, clove oil or wood pulp, is a white to yellowish crystalline powder, and costs one-tenth the price of real vanilla.
