The pantry and the toolbox
The pantry exists because our clients needed these ingredients and nobody was importing them. We buy at origin and bring them in ourselves, so professional kitchens pay a trade price, not this one. If you are cooking with it rather than cooking at home, write to us.
The pantry
The same ingredients we import for professional kitchens, in formats that make sense for one person cooking at home on a Sunday.
Every product is priced at one flat rate per kilo, whichever size you buy. Fifty grams costs the same per kilo as two hundred and fifty. Small buyers usually pay a penalty for being small; here they do not, and the column on the right is there so you can check it. Prices include Dutch VAT on foodstuffs; shipping is added at payment.
Orders start at €60, before shipping.
Mexican vanilla, whole pods
Vanilla planifolia
Gourmet-grade Vanilla planifolia from Papantla, in Veracruz, cured by hand over months rather than dried in days. The pods stay oily and supple, and the aroma arrives in layers: chocolate and red berries first, then tobacco and cinnamon underneath.
Minimum order €60. Add €15.00 more to check out.
Rosita de cacao
Quararibea funebris
The dried flower behind Oaxacan tejate, where it has been used for centuries — ground together with cacao and maize into a drink older than the country it comes from. Almond blossom and marzipan, with something faintly cooling underneath.
Minimum order €60. Add €37.50 more to check out.
Mexican vanilla paste
Vanilla planifolia
Vanilla extract, vanilla powder, seeds and pure agave syrup, combined into something denser than extract alone. AAA grade, seeds visible, carried in pure agave.
Minimum order €60. Add €34.00 more to check out.
Smoked chipotle powder
Capsicum annuum
A jalapeño ripened red and dried over wood smoke. Warmth and depth, not a spike of heat.
Minimum order €60. Add €45.00 more to check out.
Melipona honey
Melipona beecheii
Stingless-bee honey from the Yucatán. Thin, sharp, faintly citric.

The toolbox
Objects we designed for our own work, modelled and produced in house, and then made a few extra of. Nothing here exists because a supplier offered it — each one started as a shape a dish needed and nobody sold. One for now; the silicone moulds follow when they are ready.
Bread cutter
Designed and made in house
We had this cut in metal because the shape we wanted did not exist. It cuts one thing, and it cuts it perfectly, which is the entire argument for a custom tool.
Made to order. Each one is cut when you order it — about two weeks from order to delivery.
We build it to our dimensions. Need different ones? Talk to us →
The small print
Short, and worth reading
PRICES AND VAT
All prices include Dutch VAT on foodstuffs. Shipping is added at checkout and shown before you pay. Business buyers can add a VAT number at checkout.
MINIMUM ORDER
Orders start at €60, before shipping. We pack by hand and post in small runs, and below that the packaging costs more than what is inside it. Buying for a professional kitchen? Write to us instead — our clients buy on different terms.
DELIVERY
We post within one working day of payment clearing. Netherlands one to two working days, rest of Europe two to five. You get a tracking link with your receipt.
RETURNS
The fourteen-day right of withdrawal does not apply to food that spoils or ages quickly, and it does not apply to sealed food once the seal is broken. It does apply to the tools.
IF SOMETHING IS WRONG
Damaged, late or not what you ordered: write to us within a week of delivery and we replace it or refund it. No forms.
WHO YOU ARE BUYING FROM
hello@tastestudio.eu — or the form on this site. We reply within one or two working days.
YOUR DETAILS
We use your address to send the order and your email to send the receipt. Nothing else, no mailing list unless you ask, no sharing with anyone but the carrier. Payment runs through Shopify’s secure checkout — your card details never reach us.
COMPLAINTS
If we cannot resolve something between us, you can bring it to the European ODR platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. Dutch law applies to every order.
