Made from vanilla concentrate and natural, non-exhausted vanilla seeds, Norohy Vakana was designed so that you can enjoy 100% vanilla paste at its best. 

The name Vakana comes from a Malagasy word meaning pearl, and is tied to the culture and traditions of Madagascar, where the vanilla beans come from to create this intense, 100% vanilla, sugar-free, clean label vanilla product. 

Norohy Vakana is ultra-concentrated, just 3g of vanilla pearl is equal to 4g of vanilla beans. The recommended dosage for Vakana is 3-5g per kg of mixture. 

Certified organic, with no additives or preservatives, intense in flavour, and stored in 100% recycled and recyclable RPET jars; Vakana is a natural product that you can feel confident and proud to use in your chocolate, bakery, patisserie and ice cream production. 

Norohy Vakana is perfect for chefs and makers looking for economical and intense vanilla products that don’t include added sugar and won’t affect the colour of your preparation.
