Howell Extracts, LLC is a small, family-operated business located in Dallas, Texas. We produce single-origin, 100% pure vanilla extracts, vanilla bean cane sugar, and vanilla bean finishing salt. Our artisanal extracts are handcrafted from gourmet-grade black vanilla beans, and we never use artificial colors, flavors, or additives—only all-natural ingredients.

Each batch of vanilla undergoes a traditional cold-maceration extraction process taking many months to complete. Our handmade extracts are carefully aged and finished using medium-toasted American white oak to achieve a superior, full-bodied flavor profile, then hand-bottled with a whole vanilla bean. Our seasonal vanilla bean BBQ sauce, The Pitmaster’s Edge, is available during the summer months. Every step we take demonstrates our “no-corners-cut” philosophy in crafting the best vanilla we can possibly make. It is our strict commitment to quality, along with word-of-mouth support, that continues to fuel our growth.

In 2020, we cut our teeth making our first vanilla extracts; and, we began full-scale operations in 2021. Howell Extracts has grown through disciplined small-batch production and an unwavering focus on product quality and consistency. Our product line includes both single- and double-strength vanilla extracts made from high-quality beans sourced from Indonesia, Madagascar, Mexico, and Uganda.

We operate with redundancy and a strong emphasis on transparent and responsible sourcing. Through close, direct relationships with our suppliers, we maintain essential visibility into each stage of our supply chain—from farming and curing through export and import. This transparency helps ensure fair compensation for growers, reduces risk, and provides us with reliable access to the highest-quality vanilla beans at competitive pricing. Most importantly, we do it all for you.

Our mission is to provide exceptional, artisanal vanilla products while adhering to tried-and-true traditional business practices that promote sustainability, operational stability, and long-term growth. We fill a unique niche and proudly serve customers and partners throughout North Texas and beyond, maintaining the highest standards of integrity and craftsmanship in everything we produce.
