I am going to buy us a kg from this company.

Vanilla Mart

Based in Kent, United Kingdom, we are specialist importers and retailers of quality Vanilla Pods from India. Our clientele include wholesalers, retailers, restaurants, bakeries and the discerning public!

All our Vanilla is sourced from farmers co-operatives in South India ensuring quality whilst paying a fair price to the grower. The Vanilla is grown and cured using traditional methods to ensure freshness and a distinctly rich aroma with high Vanillin content.


They work out at a ridiculously low price. Vanillin content is 2.1% and the pods are around 15cm in length. Perhaps Sally-in-Wales can do a taste test for us for future purchases. Based on a low estimate of 200 pods per kg it works out at about 13p a pod!

Can you pm me with the quantity you want in multiples of 10 please. Put Vanilla as the subject of your message.


I will place the order when it looks as if I won't need to find a use for a kg of vanilla and then work out more accurate costs. Postage is going to be pretty low, pods don't weigh much.

Better go and tidy my message box.

I think various relatives are going to be getting kilner jars for Christmas, filled with maybe 5 pods and topped up with caster sugar. Would make very nice prezzies I reckon and at this price extremely affordable

I can take no credit for finding these, Sally sent me the link.

The ensuing chaos will be mine, all mine.

1/2 kg gone already so it looks like I will be ordering 2kg.
