Description
Botanical Name: Vanilla planifolia
Vanilla powder made from whole vanilla pods represents the most complete expression of vanilla flavour. This premium Madagascan Bourbon vanilla powder is produced by finely milling certified organic vanilla pods in their entirety, ensuring that nothing is lost and that all natural aromatic compounds remain intact.
Bourbon refers to the classic vanilla variety cultivated in Madagascar, renowned for its warm, rounded and richly perfumed character. Unlike many commercial vanilla powders made from spent pods after extraction, this powder is wholly derived from fresh, high-quality pods. No bulking agents, alcohol, preservatives or colourings are added, resulting in a product that carries the full flavour, aroma and visual richness of the original vanilla bean.
Spice Zen’s Certified Organic Madagascan Vanilla Powder is selected for purity, vanillin richness and consistency, then quality checked and packed fresh in our 100% gluten-free Sydney facility. Its fine texture disperses easily, making it ideal for baking, desserts, drinks and delicate finishing where clarity and intensity are desired.

Wellness Note
Vanilla has long been valued across global food cultures for its comforting aroma and gentle sweetness. Traditionally associated with warmth, familiarity and sensory calm, vanilla is often used in foods and drinks prepared for relaxation, celebration and mindful enjoyment rather than intensity.
In culinary traditions, vanilla’s natural aroma is appreciated for creating a sense of balance and softness in dishes, rounding sharp flavours and adding depth without heaviness. Its role has always been one of refinement and pleasure, where aroma and presence are as important as taste.
