Bourbon vanilla powder from Madagascar, from organic farming
Organic Bourbon vanilla powder is used directly, without any preparation : a knife tip, i.e. about 1/4 teaspoon (~0.5 g), is enough to flavour a dessert, a smoothie or a hot drink. Obtained by dry grinding whole Ecocert-certified pods from Madagascar, it contains about 2% vanillin - the marker of a gourmet-quality vanilla.
Made from dry-ground whole vanilla pods meticulously selected for their quality, vanilla powder has a uniform chocolate-brown appearance which, despite a slightly roasted note, gives off a soft, round scent characteristic of vanilla.
The advantage of vanilla powder lies in its ease of use. It requires no preparation work. You can add it directly to your dishes as you would with salt or pepper.Gourmet black Bourbon vanilla is a nicely plump variety, containing about 2% vanillin. It is the best known and most widely consumed. Its aromatic power comes from cuts of Bourbon pods about 1 cm long, which allow extensive curing and a vanillin content that can exceed 2.5%.
💮 How to use it?
- As an infusion: 1/4 teaspoon is enough for a cup of hot water, as the powder is very concentrated. You can add it to your hot drinks such as a rooibos or a verbena tea, or a plant milk (for a smoother texture, strain after infusing)
- In cooking: in smoothies, desserts, porridges, plant milks, baking, or savoury dishes to enhance the flavours.
- In cosmetics: added to a vegetable oil to scent a homemade skincare preparation.
💮 How much to use?
Vanilla powder is very concentrated: a knife tip to 1/4 teaspoon (~0.5 g) is enough for most preparations. For regular culinary use, allow 1 to 2 g per day at most. No need to use a lot - and that's just as well, your bag will last a long time.
So vanilla is much more than a simple fragrance: it is a true invitation to indulgence, turning the present moment into a moment of sweetness and pleasure.

💮 Ethics, quality and social development
Keen to meet its customers' expectations, the company Floribis keeps innovating while complying with quality standards. Floribis works to structure the supply chain with professional pickers: fair pay, appropriate picking equipment to limit accidents. In addition, with a commitment to innovation and continuous improvement, the company is invested in Research and Development with the initial objective of mastering vanilla cultivation and hence pod production. To achieve this objective, a 1200 m² multi-span greenhouse with a state-of-the-art environmental control system was set up in order to study, understand and work with this vine with such precious pods.
💮 Beyond its captivating fragrance, Bourbon vanilla is a precious spice, prized for centuries in cooking as well as in homemade cosmetics. Frankly, few natural aromas are so universally loved. Here is what makes it unique - without promising anything more than what it is: a great spice.
- A warm, comforting fragrance: its warm, sweet aroma makes it one of the most popular scents in the world. Traditionally, it is associated with a moment of sweetness and comfort - which is why it is found in so many indulgent rituals, from evening hot chocolate to spiced golden milk.
- A wealth of aromatic compounds: vanilla contains polyphenols, including vanillin, the compound responsible for its characteristic fragrance. They mark the aromatic intensity of a gourmet-quality vanilla, with more than 2% vanillin.
- The ally of a less sugary treat: a touch of vanilla brings a sensation of sweetness without adding sugar. In practice, it often makes it possible to reduce the amount of sugar in a dessert while keeping the pleasure intact. It is one of the reasons why Aurélie systematically uses it in our raw creams.
- A long-standing sensual reputation: vanilla has long enjoyed a sensual reputation, linked to its enveloping fragrance and its sweet note. It is found in many festive culinary traditions around the world.
- An indulgent cosmetic use: added to a vegetable oil (sweet almond, jojoba), it makes a scented skincare preparation, as part of a homemade beauty routine. A few pinches in a hair oil also leave a delicate trail.

💮 Frequently asked questions
How to use organic vanilla powder every day?
Vanilla powder is added directly to your preparations, with no prior step, as you would with a spice. A knife tip (~0.5 g) is enough in a smoothie, a porridge, a raw cream, a baked good, a plant milk or even a fruit kefir. It spreads evenly and flavours uniformly.
How much vanilla powder per day?
In culinary use, allow 1 to 2 g of vanilla powder per day at most, i.e. about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon. As the powder is very concentrated (about 2% vanillin), a small amount already strongly flavours a preparation.
What is the difference between vanilla powder and vanilla pods?
Vanilla powder is the whole pod reduced to powder by dry grinding, with nothing added. It is ready to use and easy to measure out. The whole pod needs to be split and scraped to collect the seeds. The powder is more practical day to day; the pod remains more versatile for long infusions.
Does Bourbon vanilla powder contain sugar?
No. Our vanilla powder is made from 100% ground whole pods, with no added sugar or flavouring. Its perceived sweet note comes solely from its natural fragrance. That is in fact what makes it possible, in cooking, to reduce the amount of sugar in a dessert while keeping an indulgent sensation.
How to store vanilla powder to preserve its aroma?
Store it away from light and heat, in its well-resealed kraft bag or in an airtight container. Protected from moisture and air in this way, it keeps all its aroma for up to 36 months after opening.
Vanilla powder or vanilla extract: which to choose?
Vanilla powder is 100% pod, alcohol-free, ideal for raw preparations, desserts and drinks. Vanilla extract, obtained by maceration in alcohol, is intense and liquid, but contains alcohol - which does not suit everyone. For living, alcohol-free food, the powder is the simplest choice.
