But if the irreparable has already happened, there are ways to improve the situation. If you notice that the semi-finished product is bitter, then it will not be difficult to fix the situation.

Make some more cream or dough and dilute the previously spoiled mass with vanilla.

You can also add a sweetener such as sugar or honey.

Another way is to add additional spices. Cinnamon and cloves, as well as chocolate, perfectly neutralize the bitterness of vanillin.
