Product Description
As an essential ingredient for making creme brulee, vanilla ice cream, and many other dishes, nothing beats a quality vanilla bean. Some recipes call for splitting the bean and using only the tiny black vanilla seeds contained in the bean. Place used and dried vanilla beans in a few cupfuls of sugar. After a few days, you will have delicious vanilla sugar to use in your cookie and cake recipes.

aromatic December 20, 2008
these are wonderful. i usually see vanilla beans in a glass container (two) for 5 or 6 dollars .they are so expensive. some of these will go as gifts which i hate to give up but will be happy to share
AWESOME...! December 17, 2008
I'm very impressed with the quality of these vanilla beans...! They arrived very plump and moist.... lots of yummy paste when you split them...! All at a terrific price... I just ordered more...!
Moist, Vacuum Packed and Delicious- GREAT deal December 14, 2008
My shipment of vanilla beans arrived vacuum packed for freshness. The beans are long, thick and large. The flavor and scent is intensely vanilla. I was worried that because these beans are sold for so much less than those in specialty/gourmet stores, that they would be of poor quality. Not true! These are the best vanilla beans I've ever purchased.
I have used these beans to make my own vanilla oil (split a bean or two lengthwise, then leave to soak in a couple of cups of a mild cooking oil such as canola. The resulting vanilla oil can then be used as the oil called for in desert recipes (think cupcakes!), or even body products such as lip balm. Split vanilla beans may also be used to make your own vanilla sugar or syrup. Just leave the split bean in a closed container with up to four or five cups of white or brown sugar for a week to make "vanilla sugar." Add a split vanilla bean to two or three cups of simple syrup, and you now have your own vanilla syrup (note: I also add a drop or two of vanilla extract to enhance the syrup's flavor. I've also made my own vanilla extract by placing two split beans in a closed glass jar of plain vodka (leave for at least two weeks before using, shaking container every so often). I cannot imagine the amount of money I've saved by making these items myself, plus it's fun and, in my opinion, better tasting!
Prior to finding this vendor on Amazon, I purchased and used vanilla beans from "specialty" and gourmet stores over the years. I find those other beans - Nielsen-Massey, for example - to be extremely expensive, dried out and relatively flavorless compared to the beans offered by this vendor! You cannot beat the pricing and flavor offered by the folks at JR Mushroom. Oh, and the shipping was extremely fast, and I believe I received a thank you note from the vendor with my purchase. Highly Recommended!
Exceptional Value November 26, 2008
I use vanilla beans quite often and find a bundle at this cost is unbelievable. I have paid close to this amount for just 3 beans in the past, not again. These are good quality beans with a wonderful aroma. Shipment was extremely fast. What more could you ask for good price, quality product and fast delivery.
Madagascar vanilla Beans September 7, 2008
First the price is incredible. The smell is fantastic. My cupboard smells great all the time. The flavor is intense. Strong and irrsistable. What I usually get for two here, I got sixteen online. Just GREAT quality. The beans are dark and long. The flavor is exceptional.
