Vanilla Beans
Excellent Product! Excellent Service!
I'm a convert
I've been making my own vanilla extract for over a decade and used to buy my beans based on reviews at a Infamous Global seller. Was never sure what I would get. Then I found this company! The beans were beautiful! Fragrant, moist but not too moist, easy to cut open to expose the seeds and each Bean was six to seven inches long. I'm a happy extract maker! 💝💃🥳
High Quality Vanilla - excellent customer service.
Slo Food group team takes great care of their customers. Received a broken bottle of Vanilla and it was immediately handled. Received my replacement bottle within 3 days.
This extract is used to make our Tahitian Vanilla Cakes!

The difference between grade A and grade B vanilla beans is a combination of the following traits: average length of vanilla pods, moisture content and blemish and variegation in the beans. Our Madagascar vanilla beans and all grade b varieties of vanilla average 12- 14 cm in length.
As is the case with most Grade B vanilla beans, these vanilla beans do contain cosmetic blemishes. Splits, cracks, light red variegation, vanilla bean tattoos and other physical imperfections are normal. This is not a result of inferior vanilla but rather the longer drying periods used for this grade of vanilla.
When purchasing traditional Bourbon vanilla beans you will find a rich, creamy and familiar vanilla flavor. Madagascar vanilla beans are well-suited for baked goods and both hot and cold preparations. These extraction grade vanilla beans will work perfectly for homemade vanilla extract or vanilla paste recipes.
A common characteristic that is often but not always present for this type of vanilla bean is red variegations up and down the vanilla pod. This is what is referred to as red vanilla beans and the most common choice for making vanilla extract.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The answer of how many vanilla beans to make vanilla extract is somewhat misleading. The answer is not how many but how much. Since vanilla extract was standardized by the Food and Drug Administration in 1966, the amount of vanilla beans needed to make one gallon of vanilla extract is 13.35 ounces of vanilla beans per gallon of ethyl alcohol. This translates to at least 0.834 ounces of vanilla beans per cup of alcohol for a single-fold extract.
- Most users will find that Madagascar vanilla extract is great for everyday use in the kitchen. Madagascar (accountable for 75% of the world’s supply of vanilla) has a very rich, woody flavor, whereas Tahitian vanilla beans have light floral overtones. Madagascar vanilla beans are primarily used in cooking and commonly used to flavor chocolate, baked goods, and ice cream. Tahitian vanilla beans have a more refined aroma that new users to vanilla might not enjoy as much as Madagascar. Tahitian vanilla beans make a great special purpose vanilla extract when you want the profile of Tahitian vanilla to sing in a recipe. Pair Tahitian vanilla with fruit-based items, custards. It is also often mixed into perfumes and soaps.
