Frequently, I will pass up on buying organic vanilla beans due to the cost alone. They are expensive, and easily go for $3 to $6 per organic vanilla bean at your local health food store. It’s so much easier to just grab the pure vanilla extract, instead… but now there’s good news!

At The Organic Vanilla Bean Company, you can now afford to load up on their incredibly low priced vanilla beans.  They are offering organic beans at 10x to 12x less the retail price! You just have to check them out!

Deal: $25 for 1lb of Grade A Certified Organic Tahitian Vanilla Beans (6-7″ long). That’s about 25 cents per bean!

Description: “Tahitian Vanilla comes from the fruit of an orchid variety called Vanilla Tahitensis and has very little vanillin, but is high in the natural organic compound called heliotropin. Tahitian beans are generally plumper than Bourbon, but more delicate with a stronger nose: they are flowery, fruity and anisic with a smooth flavor. Gourmet and pastry chefs love to work with the Tahitian variety, as they crave its instant flavor burst without the lingering finish.”

You just have to try them! So much better than vanilla extracts, and the bean itself adds such a great flavor to your smoothies, raw desserts, and all your other cool creations!
