5.0 out of 5 stars DIY Vanilla Sugar made a LOT cheaper and easier
My household loves vanilla sugar and/ or vanilla sweetener. But it's ridiculously expensive to buy -- especially in the quantities we use for cooking/baking/coffee/tea, etc. -- so I make it myself by putting 10 vanilla beans, cut into 1/2-inch chunks, into a jar with a pound of organic sugar, monkfruit sweetener, stevia, whatever. Close the jar and shake it every so often to redistribute the pieces. And Voila! Great, intense vanilla taste added to whatever you want and at a reasonable price point. The Grade B pods here seemed fine to me; they were skinny, but soft and pliable and very fragrant. Will likely be buying these again when I need to make more vanilla sugar.
5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful scent, very nice beans
I have bought vanilla beans before, but it's been a while. I was looking to not break my bank and make a perpetual vanilla extract. I bought one order just to see how they were. They were soft and just touching them the scent of vanilla was all over my fingers. Cut beautifully, nice and B grade moist (so not A grade, but I was pleased with them). They all looked good and ready to use so I bought another and added it in. Very pleased - It'll be a year before my extract is ready, but I would buy them again.5 stars - seller shipped it quick, the beans well packaged and were lovely for a grade B, the scent of vanilla was very nice. I'm happy.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great beans at a great prices
I ordered beans from 2 places and these were the cheaper of the two. In the picture these beans are at the top - moist and nice dark seeds inside (actually darker than the other seller). Several of these beans were split but they are grade B and I was cutting them regardless. They had a great aroma and I really didn’t see any difference with the other beans I purchased. Will know in a year how they do at making extract. In the mean time I just ordered 20 more beans from this seller
4.0 out of 5 stars These beans are smaller than my past orders from this company.
I've ordered from this company before and have been very happy with my vanilla beans. This order was not like the ones I've ordered in the past. The smell was wonderful, but the beans were super skinny. My package weighed .75 ounces. I was expecting a little more from the order. The beans are very good quality, they're just really small. I would take a chance on ordering again because of my purchases in the past. I would not order again based on this order.
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for making Vanilla Extract
These are moist thick beans that make the best homemade bourbon vanilla extract.
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Bean!
We have purchased from this vendor multiple times.The quality of the product is exceptional. We use them for making vanilla powder for baking instead of leaching the vanilla flavor out with a clear alcohol. There is NOT WASTE as the entire bean is used.We highly recommend this supplier for vanilla beans of all grades.
5.0 out of 5 stars Fuzz/mold on the grade B vanilla beans, grade A appear to be ok. UPDATE: it’s not mold!
I ordered both grade A and grade B vanilla beans. Upon opening the B grade beans I found the tips are covered in mold (white fuzz). I tried to report a problem with my order but apparently this item is not eligible for a refund or return (I would have been content with a replacement but that doesn’t appear to be an option).UPDATE: I was contacted promptly by JL Gourmet regarding my concerns and I am completely satisfied with our resolution. It is important to note some of the information I was given regarding this product. What I believed to be “mold” on the vanilla beans is actually concentrated vanillin - the very chemical that gives vanilla extract it's unique flavor! Vanillin gathers at the site of a harvesting cut (or split as the bean grows) and is common, especially in extract grade vanilla beans. It cannot be prevented and is actually a sign of a well-cured, healthy bean. Chemically speaking, vanillin is a preservative the bean secretes to keep mold from damaging it and, given enough time, all beans will develop the vanillin fuzz! In addition, mold would be round and black while white vanillin fluff is heat sensitive and will dissolve with simple body heat if you just put a finger over it! How cool is that?
5.0 out of 5 stars Homemade extract makes great Christmas gifts
I am in the process of making vanilla extract so it'll still be a few months before I could rate the flavor, but I'm sure it'll be 5 stars also. They came sealed fresh as expected and smelled heavenly even before opening the vacuum sealed packaging. I've had them soaking in vodka for a couple of months now and it smells great. My only complaint would be size, I though I would be getting more weight so I couldn't make as much extract as I expected so I ordered the 26 pack for my next batch.
