Vanilla Powder

The History

In 1837 the Belgian botanist Morren was the first person to succeed in artificially pollinating the Vanilla flower. In the following year Neumann, a French botanist, succeeded in repeating a successful artificial pollination. However, on La Réunion Island, the process did not work. In 1841 Edmond Albius, a 12-year-old slave, discovered the technique of manual pollination. In 1848 Réunion exported to France about 50 pods (175 grams). Vanilla cuttings were soon taken to the neighboring islands of Madagascar, Comoro and Santa Maria and by 1898 about 200 tons had been produced by the French colonies. England and Belgium soon began cultivating the vanilla orchid in many of their own colonial possessions around the world.

Successful plantations were also established in Indonesia and Tahiti. By the early 20th century Madagascar gained control of the world vanilla market and before long Madagascar, Comoro and Reunion produced 80% of the world’s vanilla supply, with 20% produced in India, Tahiti, Uganda, Papua New Guinea, and Tonga. Mexican vanilla, revered as the best, is scarce outside Mexico, since their harvest produces only enough for the domestic market.
