Good beans, good price Aug 24, 2007
By Suzanne Booker
Moist, fragrant vanilla beans at a very reasonable price - far superior to the pricey withered sticks available at most supermarkets. Highly recommended.

Perfect service! Aug 25, 2010
By Assel Ibraimkhanova
I live in Kazakhstan and, unfortunatelly, we don't have any type of vanilla beans in our supermarkets. Plus, most of the companies simply do not have delivery to our country. Friend of mine was visiting US and I've ordered the Vanilla Beans from Arizona Vanilla Company to his temporary address. But, unfortunatelly, my parcel hasn't been delivered by indicated time and I've contacted Arizona Vanilla Company for their assistance. They found out that the parcel has been lost and offered to ship new order. I've explained my situation that friend of mine has already left US and that I live in Kazakhstan. Despite the fact that they initially do not ship anything to this direction, they kindly offered to do an exception and ship it to my home address in Kazakhstan! I was soo impressed with such high level of customer care. I've got my parcel and finally can start baking :)
Thank you very much for your care and support! I wish you company great success!

I made some impressive vanilla ice cream with these beans Aug 04, 2010
By David A. Leon
I used one of these beans to make some fresh vanilla ice cream last Monday night. The recipe came from Season #1 of "Good Eats", Churn Baby Churn. 2 cups of half & half, 1 cup heavy cream, 1 cup sugar, a little pure fruit pectan, and one of these beans. Heat the cream to 170 degrees, mix in your other ingredients well, then kill the heat. You now have "ice cream batter". Pour the batter in a sealed container, and place the container in the Frig for 6 hours. After 6 hours, get out your ice cream maker and churn for about 30-35 minutes. I find longer is better.
Alton Brown put up a little notification prior to a commercial break stating that Madagascar beans are the most sought-after despite the fact that the Mexican beans are more flavorful. Regrettably, the only source of vanilla beans in my hood is Williams-Sonoma, and they only carry the Madagascar beans. Those do make for a delicious vanilla ice cream, but I didn't want to pass on the opportunity for more flavor. I decided to test Alton's claim by ordering some these beans.
The results are pretty sensational. I pretty much mopped up the floor with some house guests last. They loved the beef bourguignon and the Paella I made, but the vanilla ice cream afterward knocked 'em dead. Let's just say they were flabbergasted.
Make some vanilla ice cream. You will like the results.
Is Alton correct about Mexican v Madagascar beans? I don't know about that. I think the Mexican bean is the far more familiar flavor. If you are an American, you grew up on the flavor of the Mexican vanilla beans. This flavor has the home field advantage. The Madagascar bean is more exotic. It has a coffee-vanilla kind of flavor. I like them both. I think I will cut half a Madagascar and half a Mexican bean on my next batch, and see what the combined flavor is like.

Amazing Vanilla! Jul 08, 2010
By SethB
Purchased these for vanilla ice cream, and they are amazing! Arrived quickly in a padded envelope (in a plastic bag), the beans are filled with seeds, moist, and incredibly aromatic and flavorful. Trying some of the other varieties but do not hesitate to get these for ice cream.

Vanilla beans Apr 12, 2009
By Wendy Moffitt
These are very high quality and very fragrant. I am happy to have them in my kitchen to cook with when I want that extra punch or flavor.
