Yes you can and unless it is recipe that's main ingredient is vanilla bean, most people will not be able to tell the difference. As a matter of fact, most people can't tell the difference between pure vanilla extract and imitation that costs a LOT less. I use 1 teaspoon of extract for 1 pod of vanilla bean. If you are worried about the liquid imbalance in the recipe, decrease another of your liquids by a teaspoon.

yes you can because they are practicly the same just with different names Vanilla Essence does not have alcohol in it, and is at least double the strength to that of Vanilla Extract, which has alcohol in it. So for 1 part essence, use 2 part extract. I believe you have got the strengths wrong. Vanilla extract is the strongest and 1 part of essence = 1/2 part extract

yes, apparently it can be substituted directly same volume to volume ratio.

"In Scandinavian countries, vanilla sugar is a powdered sugar with a strong vanilla flavour. In these countries, it is the main method of incorporating vanilla flavor into a recipe; vanilla extract is not commonly available. This form of vanilla sugar can be replaced be a roughly equivalent volume of vanilla extract. In other countries, including the United States, vanilla sugar usually is granulated white sugar that has been flavored over some time by a vanilla bean included in the sugar." from Wiki Cookbook

Vanilla flavoring can in fact be substituted 1:1 for vanilla extract. In other words, if your recipe calls for 1 tsp. of vanilla extract you would use 1tsp of vanilla flavoring.

Vanilla extract is a liquid. You will want to use a Pure Vanilla Extract for optimum results.

Yes, in fact vanilla extract is a lot better. Vanilla essence is just fake vanilla. Vanilla extract will give you a better flavor in your end result.
