Premium Indonesian Vanilla Beans (A-Grade) – Pure Flavour for Gourmet Perfection

Vanilla has long been celebrated as one of the world’s most beloved and versatile spices, and our Premium Indonesian Vanilla Beans are no exception. At SpiceBloom, we bring you A-grade, pure vanilla pods sourced from Indonesia’s rich, tropical landscapes. Known for their bold aroma, plump texture, and deep, earthy sweetness, these beans are the ultimate ingredient for gourmet cooking, baking, and infusions.

Why Choose Indonesian Vanilla Beans?

Indonesia is the world’s second-largest producer of vanilla, and its climate and soil conditions produce beans with a distinctive flavour profile – more bold, earthy, and slightly smoky than Madagascan vanilla. This makes them ideal for recipes where you want the vanilla to stand out, from luxurious desserts to aromatic savoury dishes.

A-Grade Quality – The Gold Standard

Our A-grade beans are hand-selected for superior quality. Each pod is:

• Plump, moist, and oily – never brittle or dried out.
• Rich in vanillin – the natural compound responsible for vanilla’s signature aroma and taste.
• Uniform in size and appearance – each pod is 12–14cm long, dark, and glossy.

Pure and Natural – No Additives

These vanilla beans are 100% pure with no artificial flavouring, colour, or preservatives. They are carefully cured and dried to lock in their natural sweetness and complexity.

How to Use Premium Indonesian Vanilla Pods

Vanilla pods are a versatile ingredient that can transform both sweet and savoury recipes. Here’s how to make the most of them:

• Scrape the seeds – Slice the pod lengthwise and scrape out the tiny seeds to add to batters, custards, or ice cream bases.
• Infuse liquids – Simmer whole pods in milk, cream, or syrup for deep flavour.
• Make homemade vanilla extract – Place pods in vodka, rum, or bourbon for 6–12 months for a rich extract.
• Create vanilla sugar – Store pods with sugar in an airtight jar for natural sweetness.

Flavour Profile: Deep, Bold, and Complex

Indonesian vanilla has a rich and bold character with earthy, woody undertones balanced by natural sweetness. This makes it a favourite among pastry chefs and bakers who want the vanilla to shine.

Perfect For:

• Baking – cakes, cookies, pastries, and bread
• Luxury desserts – crème brûlée, panna cotta, and mousse
• Frozen treats – gelato, ice cream, and frozen yogurt
• Beverages – coffee, cocktails, and tea infusions

Storage Tips

To keep your vanilla beans fresh:

• Store in an airtight glass jar away from light and heat.
• Do not refrigerate, as this can dry them out.
• If pods begin to dry, wrap them in a slightly damp cloth for 24 hours.
