Vanilla Beans (バニラビーンズ) is a Japanese pop duo under T-Palette Records. The group formed in 2007 under the indies label FLOWER LABEL, a sub-label of Tokuma Japan Communications, and describes themselves as a "next generation" idol unit. Vanilla Beans has had the same line-up since March of 2008, when Rika (now also a former member of Idoling!!!) left and Risa joined. In 2011 they joined the newly-formed idol label T-Palette Records, to which they and Negicco were the first artists signed.
