Premium Vanilla

quality Vanilla Extract preferred by pastry chefs

Deluxe Vanilla now sold and distributed by The Chefs Warehouse.

Why Deluxe?

Pure

We only source organic, sustainably farmed vanilla beans from Uganda, the “Pearl of Africa”.  Our pure vanillas are 100% natural in flavor and color.  Simple ingredients but complex in flavor.

Exceptional

We produce small batch vanilla extract, finished in toasted American oak.  This gives our well balanced vanilla a smooth and mellow finish without masking the naturally rich, aromatic vanilla flavors.

Preferred

A favorite of pastry professionals and home chefs. Available by the gallon and in 4 fl oz retail packaging.

Testimonials

This is by far the best vanilla bean extract we have used. The story behind it really exemplifies the love and care that is put into making it.

Chef de Cuisine, The Grove Restaurant. Houston, Texas

I highly recommend ordering vanilla beans from Deluxe Vanilla, we are happy that we have found a local source for them. It is a great  product at a great price. The beans arrive fresh and soft and the packaging preserves them that way for a long time. We are also happy to support a great local business as well, a great addition  to the Houston restaurant community.

Deluxe Vanilla has been an amazing find for our company! With the hit the vanilla industry took, it was hard to find quality products but then we met Claudia. Keeping our Houston love in the great independently owned companies we have around us makes us all stronger!

We appreciate the price stability and personal service that Deluxe provides for our business. Obviously the vanilla beans are sourced from another part of the world but the final product in produced in Houston which fits nicely with our Local ethos.

We love having a local source for vanilla extract made from sustainably farmed vanilla beans. It means a lot to us at Squable to support great people in our community making great products. We are happy that we made the switch to Deluxe and look forward to continuing to use the best vanilla extract we’ve ever worked with.

Deluxe Vanilla is the only vanilla extract we use in our bakery because their core values, standards and respect for the process and their customers align with ours. You can’t find a higher quality line of vanilla extracts anywhere. They simply don’t exist.

With recent the high cost (and questionable quality) of vanilla we were purchasing from mainline distributors, I researched other sources of quality vanilla. We ONLY use 100% real vanilla and did not want to compromise quality. I was delighted to discover that Deluxe operates out of Houston and they PERSONALLY source and inspect the vanilla beans that they use in making vanilla. By purchasing in bulk we were able to get a superior product at a lower cost.

We use the Pure Vanilla sourced from Deluxe Vanilla. The quality, reliability, and source of our vanilla we purchase from Deluxe Vanilla is wonderful, we use it in all of our products that calls for vanilla as an ingredient. It is ethically sourced and there are no third party vendors, they are the direct source, which makes it so much better. As a small, local business we appreciate and love supporting other local businesses and vendors, especially in Houston. Claudia and Brad are passionate about their product and business with many years of experience in the culinary industry.

Finding the right fit for vanilla extract was a journey. Everything fell into place when we were introduced to Deluxe Fine Foods vanilla. We couldn’t believe the quality. Getting to know the people behind this brand was a pleasure, the customer service has always been exceptional. For us personally, the Bakers Blend Vanilla Extract with Vanilla Bean Paste was the product we had been searching for. We use it in our products and there is really nothing like it. In a blind taste test, we always landed on Deluxe and we couldn’t be happier.

Deluxe vanilla is an awesome local product. It is very resonable and rivals the more expensive products on the market. As expensive as Vanilla has become lately it is great to access to something produced locally. Claudia and Brad are very nice people. I wish them continued success. I use the pure vanilla with the bean paste in all of my pastries and confections.
