About Us

We Are Your Trusted and Favourite Source.

NATURALIGHT FOODS is a manufacturer of superior, Certified Organic and natural vanilla and almond extract, and is based in the beautiful Okanagan Valley of British Columbia. Our Parent Company, Naturalight Foods Inc., has been in operation since 1981.  Throughout our decades of providing pure and elite quality products, our strong passion for the natural food industry continues to grow, as we reach for the highest possible levels of flavor and quality.  We consider ourselves true pioneers and founders in the Organic movement, being involved with its adoption from its inception.

In addition, OUR VANILLA has a distinctively superior flavour profile.  We get an extra boost of full, round, robust flavour for which our vanilla products are known, by taking our time throughout the extraction process; we use certified organic alcohol (made from sugarcane) and age our extract to let the flavours fully develop.

TIPS FOR MAKING YOUR OWN VANILLA EXTRACT

For making the best homemade aged vanilla extract, we suggest using 3 ounces of alcohol per vanilla bean. Slice the vanilla bean lengthwise, with one or two cuts. Place in a bottle and fill with your spirit of choice. Vodka gives the purest flavor, but a rum, whiskey or brandy creates a unique smooth flavor as well. Place bottles in a dark cool place for 6 to 9 months. Once per month simply turn the bottle upside down and upright again to gently stir the aging vanilla. 

 Experiment and enjoy your homemade vanilla made from the best Madagascar Vanilla Beans.
