Lakpura Organic Ceylon True Cinnamon Powder Pack is ground from the dried inner bark of the perennial cinnamon tree, Cinnamomum zeylanicum, a member of the Lauraceae family that is native to Sri Lanka. The tree has long been grown in the island's central hill country, where the bark is harvested, dried and peeled by hand — the same craft that produces the familiar rolled quills. Here the bark is milled into a fine powder, ready for the kitchen, and packed in Sri Lanka.
The powder is 100% organic certified by USDA Organic and Control Union. That means the crop and the packing have both been inspected and verified by independent certifiers against organic standards, so what reaches you is true Ceylon Cinnamon and nothing else: a single ingredient, with no fillers, no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.

Ceylon cinnamon is valued for its delicate aroma and warm, mild flavour, which is gentler than the coarser cinnamons often sold in ground form. Use it in baking — cakes, buns, biscuits and fruit tarts — and stir it through porridge, rice puddings and other desserts. It works well in hot and cold beverages, from tea and coffee to spiced milk, and in savoury cooking it belongs in curries, rice dishes and marinades alongside the island's other spices. Because the powder is finely ground, it disperses quickly, so add it towards the end of cooking when you want the aroma to carry. Keep the pack closed and away from heat and light to hold the fragrance.
It has long been valued in Sri Lankan kitchens and traditional households, and Lakpura works with organic growers in Sri Lanka to bring it to you in small batches.
