Happy with the quality-price ratio of the vanilla pods. However, the 10 free pods offered are really not great. They look like old stock that can no longer be sold...

I ordered 100 pods, and 90 have a mediocre size! They are all small and dry! They look like twigs

Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Hello Céline,
I have taken note of your review on the Avis Garanti site and I am sorry that you are not entirely satisfied with the Lac Victoria vanilla.
This is a vanilla with powerful aromas, ideal for flavoring your preparations, especially when infused in milk or in desserts.
As indicated on our site, this is a dry vanilla, resulting from its maturity and a long aging process, which allows it to develop its aromas.
To fully enjoy these pods and regain a softer texture, you can place them in a jar with a bit of rum. Within about ten days, they will rehydrate, develop their volume and flexibility, and allow you to use them more easily, getting closer to your expected feeling of a classic vanilla pod.
If you want a fatter and softer vanilla, you can direct your choices towards Madagascar Bourbon vanilla or Uganda Black Ebony vanilla, which have a higher moisture content and a more oily texture, more in line with the image one has of a soft vanilla.
However, we want to assure you that Lac Victoria vanilla remains a very beautiful vanilla, and you will not be disappointed by the strength of its aroma when you use it in infusion or in your preparations.
We remain at your disposal.
The entire David Vanille team joins me in wishing you a very happy 2026.
Best regards,
Isabelle

I received my package with 1 vanilla pod missing in two bags (9 pods instead of 10) after contacting David Vanille, no commercial discount was accepted, I am disappointed with the after-sales service.

Misleading photo showing whole cashews and I received broken cashews

Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Hello Richard.
Our product sheet clearly states that these are broken cashews, and that is precisely what we shipped to you.
If you thought you would receive whole cashews, I understand your disappointment, but the description on our site was very explicit on this point.
Best regards.

An item was missing, I was told it's not possible, and another one opened in the package, and I was told it's weird, it's never happened, as if I were a liar. I think I won't order from you again.

I haven't tried the spices. I expected the vanilla pods to be bigger. But given the price, I don't regret my order.

The spices are very good, however the plastic bags are not practical, before they were resealable and now once opened they fly everywhere. Please return to your old packaging as I don't have enough containers for all the varieties... One downside is that a minimum order is required. I would like to order more often when I finish rather than stock up just in case.

Very disappointed by the customer service that refused to compensate me after receiving an incomplete order (delivered without the black peppers). But previous orders had always gone very well. Therefore, I do not recommend this site that is not capable of making a commercial gesture of a few euros since the total of this order was around 27 euros and not all products were missing. I will probably turn to other solutions in the future.

Good products, but angry: supposedly free delivery, paid more than 7 euros, and additional gift if a certain amount is reached, missing from the package, even though checked during the order. I thought small businesses were more rigorous than very large ones, PFFF....Not happy, I called, and even less happy with my phone exchange...Free delivery to a relay point, living in the mountains, the nearest is 15km away, 30 round trip....anyway, not even heard. It's a shame, I feel like I've been cheated...It's sad. Certainly, it's not with my 60 euros of orders per year that I will enrich you, but knowing that my salary is only 500E/month, for me it's huge. Really disappointed, therefore I think this is my last order.

Hello, I just checked your order and the processing by my team (telephone registration). You chose cinnamon as a gift which was well received in your order. Delivery is free to relay points for newsletter subscribers, you are not one but could have benefited from it. It is stated everywhere on our product sheets. Meanwhile, you benefited during the FRENCHDAYS from 30% off your order. We do our best for our customers, gifts, free delivery, loyalty program, referral program but we cannot offer home delivery for all orders. It is free from 99€ for France and certain European countries. Thank you for your understanding. Also, thank you for noting my response, on a Sunday, from a rigorous company and a small boss who works every day of the week 12 hours to do the best for his customers. Best regards. David
