25 Split Extract Grade B Madagascar Bourbon Natural Vanilla Beans 5~6" by Vanilla Products USA

I use these to make vanilla , I bake a lot and prefer the homemade version. These are convenient and easy to use , have an amazing flavor and make a super quality of extract.

These are not bone dry pods. I made vanilla bean paste with them and it was the best vanilla paste I ever tasted. It was so good that the kids were inventing reasons to add it to any and everything. I am over the moon with the purchase and will be reordering very soon.

First time making homemade extract. Didn’t know what to expect. These vanilla beans looked dry. I followed the instructions by cutting them into smaller pieces. I didn’t use the qty they suggested. I put 2 or 2.5 strings cut into pieces into 8oz liquid. Have been shaking the bottles daily and the extract smells great. I am excited. Might buy another bag to do some more extract. I bake often and I can also give as Christmas gift to some of my friends who love to bake Update 5/2/2023: My very first batch that I made in March is doing great and smells really good and no more alcohol smell. They also all look much darker in the bottles. I bought another bag of the same kind vanilla and again made 6 more bottles of 8oz each. Now I continue to shake all 12 bottles daily. Will keep them for another 6-8 months and hoping to use them after that period.

I went on a mission to make my own vanilla extract this year and used these beans along with amber jars (see my other review). The beans arrived in good condition and smelled great. I wasn’t able to split them the way the directions suggested, so instead I divided the 50 beans evenly between four jars and covered them with vodka. They’ve been sitting for about six months now. At this point, the extract smells like vanilla—but still pretty vodka-forward, which I understand is normal this early in the process. So far, everything looks and smells exactly as it should. This was my first time making extract, and these beans worked well for that purpose. I’ll have a better long-term opinion once the extract fully matures, but so far I’m happy with the quality. Pros: • Good aroma • Arrived in good condition • Worked well for DIY extract Cons: • Hard to split as directed • Final results take time (not a quick project) I’d consider buying these again if I decide to do another batch, but I want to see how this one finishes first.

These are really nice beans. A pack of 25 weight approximately 1.5 ounces. You will need 50 beans to make one 750 ml bottle of vanilla. It will be dark and delicious.

I am absolutely in love with these vanilla beans. I will only purchase these ones as I have always had good luck with them. I make my own homemade vanilla and the quality of vanilla beans that you get for your money is amazing the freshness the smell of the vanilla and the texture are all spot on. You know you’re getting a quality product every time.

Quick delivery. Excellent quailty for making pure vanilla

Exactly what I wanted. And even came with great directions for use! Perfect for my project.
