Our craft
An in-house creation, produced in Portugal
Our vanilla paste is made in our Lisbon workshop, using a process we developed to bring out the deepest aromatic profile of the pod.
The heart of the process is a 24-hour slow infusion of whole pods at controlled temperature. It is this slowness, this thermal precision, that extracts the full aromatic richness of the vanilla without altering it.
The caviar is added cold at the very end of production to preserve the seeds and guarantee a refined texture. No flavouring, no additives, no added sugar: only Bourbon Grade A pods, the variety richest in vanillin and the foundation of the final intensity.
An intense, versatile paste, ready to use
We recommend a dosage between 50 and 70 grams per litre of preparation, depending on the intensity you are looking for.
Creams and crème brûlées
Add directly to the warm base. The paste diffuses evenly and reveals its notes on the palate.
Ice creams and sorbets
Ideal for ice cream bases: intensity preserved when cold and visible seeds in the finished product.
Ganaches and pastries
Perfect for whipped ganaches, financiers, madeleines, shortbreads and premium brioches.
Cold preparations
Mousses, panna cotta, cheesecakes: the paste blends in without prior heating.
