These extracts are exclusive to Vanillabazaar and are made using the latest carbon dioxide extraction technology available today. This makes this product totally alcohol free compared to almost all other extracts on the market, resulting in a purer, smoother and higher quality taste profile with much better thermal properties (if you heat it the taste does not disintegrate).

Normal extraction processes for oily compounds is done through a form of alcohol extraction. The reason for this is that alcohol is one of the very few solvents in which the extracted lipids from certain extractions can dissolve into. Vanilla is a lipid and so until now could only be extracted through this method, but some pioneering advances in technology have led to a process by which gases can be super-cooled and passed through vanilla to extract its compounds into the gas. The gas then evaporates leaving a pure extract in various forms which can then be used for various purposes. This gives the resulting extract the following properties:
It has a much stronger flavour as more of the lipids are extracted from the vanilla than conventional processes
It has absolutely no alcohol content
It requires no stabilising agent
It has a very long shelf life (2-3 years)
It needs no additives
It needs no preservatives
It is a completely clear product
We sell this product in an invert solution in 4 variations, in either 200g/l or 400g/l concentrations and both with and without the seeds. They are currently only available in 50ml retail bottles or in catering pack sizes for our wholesale customers, but we will be introducing new sizes later in the year.
Our original extract range of extracts is still available in 40ml, 100ml and 250ml sizes at very competitive prices, but note that there are traces of alcohol in these products as with all traditional extracts, even though ours have one of the lowest percentages on the market (< 1%).
Vanilla Powder

None of the pod is wasted and it results in a totally pure product. Of course like all our other food products there are no artificial colourings, flavourings, preservatives or carriers.
Perfect because of its versatility when used in your cooking; a small quantity is enough to add a wonderful fragrance and taste without the need for infusion.
