We supply UK food and drink manufacturers with real, single-origin vanilla in the formats production lines use: extract by the jerrycan, paste by the barrel, powder and pods by the kilo. Every product is made to a written specification and repacked in our SALSA-certified London site.
Large bakeries use around 50 litres of our extract a month, and our trade clients typically stay with us for five to ten years. We always have stock, so the same vanilla arrives on every order.

Real vanilla on the label
Shoppers read ingredient lists. Natural vanilla extract, paste and seeds let you say “Madagascar vanilla” on pack, and give the rounded, creamy flavour that vanillin alone can’t.
Higher folds cut the dose: a 2-fold extract does the job of twice as much single fold, and 5-fold extract is concentrated enough for large batches. We can help you work out the most cost-effective strength for your recipe.
