For the purposes of this part:

(a) The term "vanilla beans" means the properly cured and dried fruit pods of Vanilla planifolia Andrews and of Vanilla tahitensis Moore.

(b) The term "unit weight of vanilla beans" means, in the case of vanilla beans containing not more than 25 percent moisture, 13.35 ounces of such beans; and, in the case of vanilla beans containing more than 25 percent moisture, it means the weight of such beans equivalent in content of moisture-free vanilla-bean solids to 13.35 ounces of vanilla beans containing 25 percent moisture. (For example, one unit weight of vanilla beans containing 33.25 percent moisture amounts to 15 ounces.) The moisture content of vanilla beans is determined by the method prescribed in Official Methods of Analysis of the Association of Official Agricultural Chemists, Ninth Edition, 1960, sections 22.004 and 22.005 [Ed. note, 10th edition, 1965, p. 327, secs. 22.004, 22.005], except that the toluene used is blended with 20 percent by volume of benzene and the total distillation time is 4 hours. To prepare samples for analysis, the pods are chopped into pieces approximately 14inch in longest dimension, using care to avoid moisture change.

(c) The term "unit of vanilla constituent" means the total sapid and odorous

principles extractable from one unit weight of vanilla beans, as defined in paragraph (b) of this section, by an aqueous alcohol solution in which the content of ethyl alcohol by volume amounts to not less than 35 percent.

§ 22.2 Vanilla extract; identity; label

statement of optional ingredients.

(a) Vanilla extract is the solution in aqueous ethyl alcohol of the sapid and odorous principles extractable from vanilla beans. In vanilla extract the content of ethyl alcohol is not less than 35 percent by volume and the content of vanilla constituent, as defined in § 22.1 (c), is not less than one unit per gallon. The vanilla constituent may be extracted directly from vanilla beans or it may be added in the form of concentrated vanilla extract or concentrated vanilla flavoring or vanilla flavoring concentrated to the semisolid form called vanilla oleoresin. Vanilla extract may contain one or more of the following optional ingredients:

(1) Glycerin.

(2) Propylene glycol.

(3) Sugar (including invert sugar).
(4) Dextrose.

(5) Corn sirup (including dried corn sirup).

(b) (1) The specified name of the food is "vanilla extract" or "extract of vanilla."

(2) When the vanilla extract is made in whole or in part by dilution of vanilla oleoresin, concentrated vanilla extract, or concentrated vanilla flavoring, the label shall bear the statement "made from or "made in part from

," the blank being filled in with the name or names "vanilla oleoresin," "concentrated vanilla extract," or "concentrated vanilla flavoring," as appropriate. If the article contains two or more units of vanilla constituent, the name of the food shall include the designation . fold," the blank being filled in with the whole number (disregarding fractions) expressing the number of units of vanilla constituent per gallon of the article.

[ocr errors]

(3) Wherever the name of the food appears on the label so conspicuously as to be easily seen under customary conditions of purchase, the labeling required by subparagraph (2) of this paragraph shall immediately and conspicuously pre

cede or follow such name, without intervening written, printed, or graphic matter.

§ 22.3 Concentrated vanilla extract; identity; label statement of optional ingredients.

(a) Concentrated vanilla extract conforms to the definition and standard of identity and is subject to any requirement for label statement of optional ingredients prescribed for vanilla extract by § 22.2, except that it is concentrated to remove part of the solvent, and each gallon contains two or more units of vanilla constituent as defined in § 22.1 (c). The content of ethyl alcohol is not less than 35 percent by volume.

(b) The specified name of the food is "concentrated vanilla extract fold" or "-_ fold concentrated vanilla extract," the blank being filled in with the whole number (disregarding fractions) expressing the number of units of vanilla constituent per gallon of the article. (For example, “concentrated vanilla extract 2-fold.")

[27 F.R. 8757, Sept. 1, 1962, as amended at 28 F.R. 9983, Sept. 14, 1963]

§ 22.4 Vanilla flavoring; identity; label statement of optional ingredients.

(a) Vanilla flavoring conforms to the definition and standard of identity and is subject to any requirement for label statement of optional ingredients prescribed for vanilla extract by § 22.2, except that its content of ethyl alcohol is less than 35 percent by volume.

(b) The specified name of the food is "vanilla flavoring."
