Ceylon True Cinnamon is the sweeter, lighter cinnamon — the one chefs and home cooks seek out when they want clean, delicate spice rather than the coarser flavour of cassia, the common substitute. These are cut sticks of Cinnamomum zeylanicum, grown and packed in Sri Lanka and sold in a resealable kraft-paper pouch with a viewing window, so you can see what you are buying. Ceylon Cinnamon has long been valued in Sri Lankan kitchens and in traditional wellbeing.
Certified organic by Control Union. The pouch carries the USDA Organic seal and the EU organic leaf. The cinnamon is grown without synthetic chemicals or preservatives, and it is not fumigated. In plain terms: what is in the pouch is cinnamon, and nothing else.
- Organic certification issued by Control Union

The flavour is clean enough to use widely. Drop a stick into curries and roasts, work it into pastries and sweet treats, or steep it in hot drinks — chai lattes, hot chocolate, or a simple cup of Ceylon tea. Reseal the pouch after each use and keep the sticks with your other spices.
