Deep, spicy-sweet vanilla from the birthplace of the vanilla orchid.
Crafted from hand-selected vanilla beans grown in Mexico—the native origin of the vanilla plant—Nielsen-Massey Mexican Pure Vanilla Extract offers a rich, robust flavour unlike any other. Through their proprietary cold extraction process, over 300 natural flavour compounds are gently preserved, yielding a vanilla with a creamy, woody base and warm spice notes reminiscent of clove or nutmeg.
This unique flavour profile makes it an ideal pairing for chocolate, citrus, cinnamon, and warm spices, and it performs exceptionally well in both sweet and savoury recipes. Mexican vanilla also smooths the acidity of tomato-based dishes and subtly enhances spicy elements like chilli peppers.
