Vanilla Caviar

Vanilla Caviar, also known as vanilla bean seeds, is a truly luxurious ingredient derived from the pods of the vanilla orchid, primarily Vanilla planifolia. The tiny, black, glistening seeds inside the vanilla pod are commonly referred to as "caviar" due to their small, bead-like appearance and rich essence. Scrape these seeds out, and they can transform any recipe with their intense flavor and aromatic properties.

The scent profile of Vanilla Caviar is rich, warm, and complex. It distinctly features a deep, creamy sweetness accompanied by subtle floral undertones and a hint of spices like cinnamon or cardamom. The primary aroma is characteristically vanilla but intensified, with a pure, potent essence that surpasses that of regular vanilla extract. This profile is due to the high concentration of vanillin and other aromatic compounds found within the seeds.

Given its potent aroma and flavor, Vanilla Caviar is preferred in gourmet cooking and baking, where its superior quality can shine through even with minimal use. In perfume and aromatherapy, it lends a comforting, familiar yet luxurious note, often associated with warmth, welcome, and a sense of indulgence.
