The Dawning has returned to Destiny 2. While there are plenty of rewards to chase and new a quest line to complete, sometimes you just forget the basics, we aren’t all professional bakers after all. In this guide, we’re going to provide the recipe for Vanilla Blades that you can give to Lord Shaxx. We’ll even tell you how to get each resource just in case you’re lacking in that department.
Vanilla Blades for Lord Shaxx
Mix one Cabal Oil with one Sharp Flavor, add 15 Essence of Dawning, then bake.

How to Get The Dawning Ingredients
Since the event just started and there are certainly new ingredients we will be updating this list throughout the event. Currently, these are all of the known ingredients in The Dawning 2021.
The first ingredient is a random drop from certain enemy types.
- Vex Milk: Kill Vex
- Ether Cane: Kill Fallen
- Cabal Oil: Kill Cabal
- Chitin Powder: Kill Hive
- Taken Butter: Kill Taken
- Dark Ether Cane: Kill Scorn
The second ingredient is found by killing enemies in specific ways.

The third ingredient is called Essence of Dawning. Find it by completing just about any activity in the world, or by completing bounties for Eva. Finishing something like a Strike or a Gambit match will reward you upwards of 15 Essence of Dawning, which is what each recipe will need to complete.
Once you have everything you need, just return to the Tower and hand over your freshly baked Vanilla Blades to Lord Shaxx!
What’s New In The Dawning 2021?
Unsurprisingly, there are a ton of new cosmetics for players to both earn and purchase during this event. Both Riskrunner and Anarchy are getting new, festive exotic ornaments which are always welcomed. Players can also complete a ten-step quest that has you baking goods for The Spider and Saint-14, but won’t require a ton of work on your end. Snowballs, previously a Tower exclusive gimmick, can now be found throughout various planets and used to pelt enemies. There is also a new armor ornament set per class along with various emotes, shaders, and Ghost projections. Players can also nab a new Stasis sword called the Zephyr, which you can earn by opening up Dawning packages.
Keep in mind that everything will be available for bright dust at some point except the two exotic ornaments and the Happy Trails finisher. Happy Dawning, Guardians!
