Over 100 Years of Excellence: Family Owned Since 1918 For over a century, Cooks has been crafting premium vanilla products, from beans to extracts to powders. Founded in 1918, this family-owned business has maintained a steadfast commitment to quality and artisanship.

Exceptional Madagascar Vanilla Beans The heart of Cooks' operation lies in the lush vanilla-producing regions of Madagascar. Here, the team personally selects the finest, fully-ripened vanilla beans, each one hand-pollinated by small farmers and sun-cured for four months entirely by hand. The result is an organic, dark, supple, and intensely aromatic product.

New Gallon Sizes for Favorite Flavors Cooks now offers gallon sizes (128 ounces) of some of their most popular flavor extracts, including Vanilla, Hazelnut, Rum, Maple, Orange, and Cinnamon. This allows home bakers, chefs, and commercial producers to stock up on premium, artisanal extracts in larger quantities.

The Madagascar Advantage Madagascar is the world's premier vanilla-producing region, where the crop is deeply ingrained in the local culture and heritage. This island nation's perfect growing conditions, skilled artisans, and generations-old curing techniques come together to create unparalleled vanilla.

The Art of Great Vanilla Crafting exceptional vanilla requires a delicate human touch, repeated thousands of times throughout the process. From hand-pollination to sun-curing, each step is carried out with utmost care by experienced artisans.

Experts in the Curing Process The four-month sun-curing process is arduous but essential, as it optimizes the enzymatic reactions that impart vanilla's signature aroma and flavor.

Small-Scale, Hand-Cultivation Pure vanilla cannot be rushed or industrialized. In Madagascar, the vanilla orchid is grown on tiny farmer plots near local villages, ensuring a sustainable, artisanal approach.

Enriching Two Worlds Cooks' deep connections with the Malagasy vanilla farmers have led to meaningful friendships and life experiences that are integral to the company and its products.

Customer Reviews Speak for Themselves Cooks' vanilla offerings have earned impressive customer ratings, with the Organic Vanilla Powder, Pure Vanilla Bean Paste, and Madagascar Grade A Beans all receiving 4.3 stars or higher out of 5.

Organic, All-Natural, and Versatile Cooks' Organic Vanilla Powder is a revolutionary, alcohol-free alternative to liquid extracts. Certified organic, gluten-free, non-GMO, and vegan, it's perfect for applications where liquid vanilla is unsuitable, such as white cakes. The powder never evaporates in baking and can also be used as a versatile condiment.
