Tonka Beans

Tonka beans are the seeds from giant Cumaru trees native to South America. Their unique flavour is often described as a complex mix of different spices, including vanilla, clove, liquorice, coconut and bitter almond.

Although soft when harvested, they are slowly dried to produce dark, hard beans with an intense flavour which can be grated like nutmeg.

They are at their best infused into creams and custards, but can also be grated directly over both desserts and savoury dishes.

Presented in a resealable glass jar to help keep your beans fresh between uses.
