Vanilla is a spice plant with a distinctive sweet smell and aroma. It is used not only in the confectionery industry, but also in the perfume industry. It is also used in the production of liqueurs and flavored chocolates. It comes in the form of oil, powder (ground vanilla), vanilla sugar, and sticks. Vanilla sugar, with its extremely intense aroma, is present in most cake recipes and has become a common product.

Today, it is widely available, and we can enjoy its wonderful aroma without restrictions.
Vanilla, along with saffron, is one of the most expensive spices in the world. What does it look like? Vanilla pods resemble long, thin pods. They are the fruit of the orchid species Vanilla planifolia (flat-leaved vanilla). It grows wild in the rainforests of South and Central America. It draws its nutrients from the trunks and branches of dead trees. It has a well-developed root system, and the leaves are stiff and flat. Beautiful, large, sweetly scented flowers attract insects. The flowering period is from May to August. Vanilla blooms every two to three years and only for eight hours. Fruiting begins after three years. The green pods are harvested before they are fully ripe, then naturally fermented and dried. This way, they acquire a dark color and begin to smell intensely. Initially, Mexico had a monopoly on vanilla cultivation. When the method of hand pollination was discovered, vanilla cultivation spread to other territories as well. Today, Madagascar is the largest producer of this spice.
