Over the last seven years LittlePod has earned its much lauded reputation as an essential store cupboard ingredient.
Vanilla pods can be expensive and while there are some lovely uses for the discarded pods, many of us will opt for the simple practicality of a vanilla bean paste to make life a little less wasteful in the kitchen. This unique paste, utilising all the pod, is the result of 60 years of blending expertise which has led to a viscosity that is just perfect for everyday use in the kitchen. This in turn offers the farmers a value for all their pods not just the straight ones.
A little goes a long way, as they say, and with each teaspoon containing a whole vanilla pod, this concentration along with far less bake off from the paste, really
intensifies the vanilla flavour in bakes with only a fraction of the quantity of other pastes. This means it’ll also be a longer lasting store cupboard essential.
Ethically and sustainably sourced, LittlePod’s paste and extract use only high-quality and organic pods to make sure every drop adds ‘real’ flavour to every make and bake.
Did you know?
The labour-intensive nature of vanilla farming means that many vanilla plantations are being cleared for lower intensive and faster growing crops, so switching your artificial vanilla flavouring for the real deal will help to keep real vanilla accessible.

NOT JUST FOR BAKING
Pure vanilla is far from ordinary, it contains over 250 well-being compounds and is even known to stave off sugar cravings, just from smelling it. Use it to flavour porridge, yoghurts, smoothies, coffee or rub into meats. Or get some inspiration from LittlePod’s recipe pages.
