There are over 110 varieties of vanilla orchids. Only one, Vanilla planifolia, produces the fruit responsible for 99 percent of commercial vanilla. Most often, vanilla beans are processed into vanilla extract, a common ingredient in baked goods and other food recipes. Whole vanilla beans or their seeds are used in recipes, just not as frequently because of the higher cost. The tiny seeds add texture and the bean has an intense flavor, plus they can add to the beauty of a light-colored dessert. Vanilla beans are simple to prepare. They\'re also often used whole to infuse the natural flavor into sugar, syrups, and beverages. MOQ: 10 MT We can supply vanilla beans from Indonesia, India, Madagascar, etc.
