Ugandan Vanilla Beans

Ugandan vanilla beans are Grade A, plump, and flexible with a moist, slightly glossy surface. The seeds scrape out easily and disperse evenly in custards, cakes, and ice cream. Their higher vanillin content gives strong, clear vanilla flavor that stands up well in chocolate desserts. Use when you want pronounced vanilla character with depth.
