Bourbon Madagascar Extract 100ml
£11.99
Our vanilla extract is made from Madagascar Bourbon vanilla in a dedicated facility in Madagascar that captures the full range of flavour compounds. The classic extract is simply vanilla, water and alcohol: no sugar, no colourings, no additives.
Choose single fold for everyday baking, double fold when you want twice the vanilla in the same spoonful, or our halal-certified alcohol-free extract with seeds if you need a halal or alcohol-free option.
Vanilla extract or vanilla essence?
Vanilla extract is made by steeping real vanilla beans. Many products sold in the UK as “vanilla essence” or “vanilla flavouring” are made mostly from vanillin, a single flavour compound, rather than from the bean, which is why they taste flatter. Check the label: if it says extract and lists vanilla, it is the real thing.

Halal, alcohol-free vanilla extract
Our alcohol-free Madagascar vanilla extract is halal certified. Instead of alcohol it uses a sugar syrup to carry the vanilla, with real Bourbon vanilla extract and vanilla seeds, so you get the speckles of a scraped pod too.
It comes in 100ml, 500ml and 1 litre bottles online, and in larger sizes for trade. It suits bakeries, caterers and manufacturers who need halal or alcohol-free ingredients, and home bakers who would rather avoid alcohol.
- Halal certified, no alcohol
- Made with Bourbon Madagascar vanilla and vanilla seeds
- Suitable for vegans; free from the 14 major allergens
- Specification available on request
Why buy vanilla extract by the litre?
If you bake often, a 1 litre bottle costs far less per teaspoon than supermarket bottles, and you get a consistent, pure Madagascar extract every time. Bakeries, cafés and ice cream makers use our 1 litre, 5 litre and 18 litre formats.
Extract keeps for years in a cool, dark cupboard with the cap tightly closed, so a large bottle doesn’t go to waste.
Vanilla extract questions
Is Madagascar vanilla extract the same as Bourbon vanilla extract?
Yes. Bourbon vanilla is the planifolia vanilla grown in Madagascar and its neighbouring Indian Ocean islands, named after the old name for Réunion. It is the classic rich, creamy vanilla flavour.
How much extract replaces a vanilla pod?
With our double-fold extract, one teaspoon equals one vanilla bean. With single-fold extract, use about a tablespoon in place of one pod.
Is your alcohol-free vanilla extract halal?
Yes, it is halal certified. It is made with a sugar syrup instead of alcohol, plus Bourbon vanilla extract and vanilla seeds. Ask us if you need the product specification.
Does your vanilla extract contain sugar?
Our classic and double-fold extracts contain no added sugar. The alcohol-free extract uses a sugar syrup instead of alcohol to carry the flavour.
Do you supply vanilla extract wholesale?
Yes. Trade customers can order single, double, 3-fold and 5-fold extract in 1 litre, 5 litre and 18 litre formats.
