10 Madagascar Vanilla Beans Grade A Whole Vanilla Pods for Vanilla Extract and Baking

These are sealed well and remain soft and resinous until you open them, which is exactly what you want. Probably the best combination of price/value and quality for vanilla bean I've ever seen. Make sure you learn how to process it: slice the pod in half lengthwise, then use the edge of a knife to scrape-out the sticky black "caviar". I then save the husks to stuff into bottles of Mexican vanilla I have in the kitchen, to enhance them over time. There's nothing like cooking and baking with real vanilla!

Good quality, plump vanilla beans. Perfect for making my own vanilla and vanilla sugar. They were nice and moist, good length. They also smell amazing. Would buy again.

These beans were beautiful! The beans were large, some were almost twice as long as the grade A beans I got from a different seller. They were moist, oily, plump with plenty of caviar and had a wonderful aroma! Shipping was prompt, they came vacuum sealed, and my package of 10 beans weighed 1.5 ounces without the packaging. These were definitely grade A beans, they were a great value for the price and I will order from this seller again when I need more beans.

Great product. Used to make vanilla bean paste. Smell wonderful!

I like to make my own coffee syrup and vanilla sugar. I've purchased other vanilla beans before, but these came across as a suggestion and was a really good price. They didn't disappoint! They are nice sized and the flavor they provide is excellent. Will definitely be purchasing again.

These beans are beautiful quality. Fresh, plump, moist and pliable. I made vanilla extract with them and the taste is fabulous. Great value too. I used half the beans to make 3 pints of instant pot extract with vodka. My next batch I’ll be using bourbon and am expecting exceptional results.

This was my first time buying vanilla beans and first time making my own vanilla extract. I don't think I could have chosen a better bean. The beans I got were fresh, oily, and full on vanilla scented. I put 25 vanilla beans each in 1.75 liter bottles of vodka and rum. 2 weeks later both the bottles of extract are darkening up nicely and that vanilla smell is awesome.

I bought these to try my hand at making extract. I bought the Vodka first then figured out I needed only 25 pods instead of the 50 pods. They were moist but i don't think they were on the larger size recommended by experienced cooks. so I just put all of them in the 2 containers I am using to age the extract. Since it takes a year for the process, I can't comment on the flavor but at 3 months, it looks like it should and I feel confident it will be a good product.
