Vanilla Powder
We are in the preliminary stages with this work, and focuses on roasting, grinding and packing vanilla bean powders. Once the processing and quality is perfected, we will pack the powders in 100g, 250g, 500g and 1kg pack sizes. Besides ground powders, we are also working to develop other value added vanilla products such as vanilla pastes, extracts and oil.
