Get ready to spice up your baked goods!

How is Bourbon vanilla powder made?

Vanilla is one of the most expensive spices there is. This is because its production is a rather complex process. Bourbon vanilla grows only on the islands of Madagascar, the Comoros, La Réunion, the Seychelles and Mauritius – also known as Bourbon islands. In these areas vanilla grows under extremely tough conditions. In its region of origin, Central America, the plants are pollinated by hummingbirds. In Madagascar, where KoRo's Bourbon vanilla is from, those little natural helpers are missing, which is why the vanilla plants are gently pollinated by hand by the farmers. Yes thats right – the vanilla farmer walks from flower to flower with a bamboo stick and carries the pollen! The vanilla beans are then carefully sorted and fermented after harvesting. This gives them their typical black-brown colour.

All things vanilla: powder, extract, pods

At Koro we only want the best vanilla powder for you, which is why we chose Bourbon vanilla powder over regular vanilla powder. If you are, however, searching for an alternative you have also come to the right place. We offer all kinds of vanilla products, such as organic vanilla flavoured coffee, Bourbon vanilla pods, and our delicate Bourbon vanilla sugar. All these vanilla products are, just as our powder, perfect for baking and replacing vanilla extract.

Ground Bourbon vanilla from KoRo

Our Bourbon vanilla is ground so that it is ready to use – whether for baking, for refining desserts, or for making tasty classics such as vanilla pudding, vanilla ice cream, vanilla curd and vanilla croissants! The powder can even be sprinkled over your iced coffee, hot chocolate, smoothies and to bake really refreshing summery cakes. Even though we associate vanilla with sweet taste, it does not taste sweet on its own. To achieve the typical vanilla flavour of your childhood, you don't necessarily have to combine vanilla with sugar, but you can also use xylitol or erythritol instead. Have fun exploring the vanilla-verse!
