Vanilla Extraction Process

Silver Cloud's Pure Vanilla Extract is produced exclusively from beans grown on the estate. After curing, the beans are carefully chopped to increase their surface area and placed in stainless steel percolators. A solution of ethyl alcohol and purified water is circulated through the chopped beans to extract the flavor. Silver Cloud uses a proprietary cold process to extract its beans. This minimizes the loss of delicate flavor components. The extraction process usually takes two to three days. The Pure Vanilla Extract is then aged in special holding tanks for as long as two weeks, prior to being filtered and boltted.

Our Pure Vanilla Extract is manufactured in accordance with the Food and Drug Administration's Code of Federal Regulations. Pure Vanilla Extract is the only flavor with a US FDA standard of identity. This standard requires 13.35 ounces of vanilla beans (at 25.00% moisture) per gallon of minimum 35% ethyl alcohol and 65% water by volume.

There are no regulations, however, regarding the quality of the beans used to manufacture Pure Vanilla Extract. Many companies use inferior beans when producing their extract. The fact that Silver Cloud uses the finest premium beans is readily evident in the quality of the extract it offers.
