I have just found a terrific mail order site for Madagascan vanilla
beans. They are based in Cairns, Queensland and don't change postage
for domestic orders. The order was received by return mail.
You can buy the beans in different quantities. I bought pack of 40
beans for AUD50 and shared them with three foodie friends. Whooohooo!!
Check their site out at www.palmplantations.com.au

Cheers Bronwyn, who might just make vanilla cream caramels for dinner
tonight!!
