Vanilla Man
Vanilla Man was formed in 2002 and produce all our products locally. We import vanilla pods from Uganda and Madagascar and have a processing plant where we produce a four fold vanilla extract,vanilla paste, powder, seeds (which are only the seeds from the inside of the pods and great for time saving in the kitchen), sugar sticks infused with vanilla (great for fancy tea parties and for upmarket hotels), and the very delicious vanilla syrup which is a decadent addition to any dessert, good with french toast and soft cheeses.

We recently launched our two new vanilla sugar grinders. Both grinders have sugar crystals, vanilla pieces and either coco or cinnamon. This is a delightful sweetner for latte's or cuppocinos, also great with pancakes and the like. Vanilla Man is based in Langebaan and all orders can be placed via email.

We pride ourselves in suppling the best quality vanilla at all times, and good service is a must. We supply catering suppliers, deli's, flavouring companies, and restaurants all over South Africa.

Slo-Jo’s
Look out for Slo-Jo’s summer range of refreshing, decadent and sexy beverages in your favourite restaurants and coffee shops this summer.

Developed by Jodi-Ann Palmer, winner of one of South Africa’s most prestigious chef competitions, the Unilever Foodsolutions Senior Chef of the Year 2008, and member of South Africa’s National Culinary Team, Slo-Jo’s new Summer Range will quench your thirst for an indulgent, refreshing summer drink. The range includes a new signature drink – The White Rose – “a classy, unique beverage that has a sense of indulgence,” says Jodi. You’ll also be able to choose from Slo-Jo’s new sexy and refreshing flavoured lemonade range and, for those looking for a more decadent drink, there’s a variety of chocolate and classical flavours that incorporate mouthwatering combinations such as hazelnut and chocolate, toffee and real vanilla.

So why not treat yourself to a refreshing summer indulgence – ask for the Slo-Jo Lemonade Coolers (Raspberry, Pomegranate, Rose and Ginger); Decadent Smoothies (White Rose, Coffee Freezo, Iced Toffee Coffee, Mocha Toffee, Hazelnut Mocha and Iced Chocolate Coffee); Fruit Frenzy (Mango Fusion, Strawberry & Banana, Wildberry Desire and Strawberry Sensation); T.Wave Crush (Wildberry Desire, Mango Fusion, Strawberry Sensation, Strawberry & Banana and Green Apple); and Smoothies (Coffee Freezo, Chocolate, Tropical, Crème Caramel, Muesli, Choc Chip Cookie Crunch, Peanut Butter); Frozen Lemonade (Traditional, Wildberry Desire and Strawberry Sensation).
NoMU STIR
NoMu has just added an exciting new product to their food range called NoMU Stir which is a re-hydrateable pesto, made completely from all natural ingredients and not containing any preservatives, artificial flavors or colorants.

The eccentric benefit to this product is that it is obviously very hydroscopic, being re-hydrateable of course. Because of this it is occasionally prone to ‘caking’ or ‘clumping’ together. In a crude way, we need to explain to consumers that this is actually a benefit since it indicates the fact that there are no artificial or chemical agents in this product to avoid exactly this problem. In a way, it’s actually a great feature, believe it or not, to find a product like this that does sometimes cake.

Anyway, that’s perhaps something good and very reassuring to talk about in this super-health conscious time we live in.

On the main plus side, as a rehydraetable pesto, you only have to make as much pesto as you need, instead of using only half the jar of the fresh stuff and then tossing the rest. The product is also versatile and brilliant on pasta, bruschetta, as a spread, as a drizzle on salad and even as a topping for pizza!

Seven Deadly Sins: They're Divine!

Rome is the home of cappuccino and biscotti and a fitting setting for the inspiration behind Elements of Spice’s Seven Deadly Sins. Way back in the 6th Century, Pope Gregory the Great ranked seven offensives and wicked passions: pride, envy, wrath, sadness, greed, gluttony and lust. The Church replaced sadness with sloth 11 centuries later and the Seven Deadly Sins, as we know them today, became part of the Catholic religion.

To aid meditation on the Seven Deadly Sins, Elements of Spice has designed a devilishly enticing range of flavoured sugars. Sinners used to face a horrid future in Hell, but with Elements of Spice you can now have a sparkly future. Use the time to reflect on earthly indulgences and also consider the Seven Heavenly Virtues: faith, hope, charity, fortitude, justice, temperance and prudence. Our candy sugar is wickedly blended with the most heavenly flavours. They’re fabulously useful for flavouring and decorating food and
they’re decadent gifts for sweethearts and sweet-toothed friends.

The packaging is also divine. The most gorgeous colours have been selected for individual graphics printed onto clear labels. Stylish bottles are made from recycled glass. The grinders are fully adjustable and closed with an embossed snap-lock lid. A shimmering silver label with the words “Enjoy Your Daily Grind” decorates the grinder.

Go on; seduce your senses with your favourite sin freshly ground over a treat of choice.
