Ground Vanilla Powder
Natural Vanilla Store stocks a large quantity of ground vanilla powder which is made from organically grown vanilla beans that are dried to less than 10% moisture before being ground into a fine particle-size powder. This product is available in Grade A , Grade B and Vanilla Sugar styles.
Vanilla Bean Powder Varieties
The Grade A variety is made from fresh vanilla pods that have been dried then cut into small pieces before being ground into a fine pure vanilla bean powder. The Grade B variety is made from vanilla pods that have been used for making vanilla extract and has a delicate vanilla aroma and flavour that is less intense than the Grade A variety. The Vanilla Sugar is made by blending Grade A vanilla powder with brown rice powder and brown sugar powder to produce a very pleasant tasting ground vanilla product. Our organic style Vanilla Bean Powder is produced from a blend of Bourbon and Tahitian vanilla pods that have been sourced from various vanilla plantations in regions such as Indonesia, Madagascar, Papua New Guinea and Uganda.
Ground Vanilla Bean Powder Uses
Our vanilla powder’s very fine grind size makes it suitable for use as flavouring, texture, and aesthetic appearance in various types of foods. Many of our long-term commercial customers have been using vanilla bean powder in large quantities for Chai Latte blends, Chocolate, Soybean drink blends, Protein shakes, pressed Fruit Juice blends, Tea blends, and baked goods such as Cookies and Cakes. When added during food preparation, it imparts a subtle vanilla flavour and colour that permeates through the dish.

Ethically Sourced and Organically Cultivated
The Bourbon and Tahitian vanilla beans used for producing our Organic Vanilla Bean Powder have been sourced ethically with good market rates paid to the growers. They have also been cultivated organically without the use of chemicals or artificial fertilizers. Although the vanilla pods used for producing our vanilla powder are not officially certified organic, the vanilla pods have been cultivated using organic methods. The rich soils in the vanilla growing regions require no artificial fertilizers, and as vanilla orchids have a high level of natural resistance to pests and diseases, no chemical sprays are used.
