Ceylon ground cinnamon is a fine, aromatic spice known for its sweet, warm and delicate flavour. Native to Sri Lanka, it is prized worldwide for its versatility in baking, savoury cooking and infusions.
This variety, known as the "true cinnamon", has a mild, slightly citrusy aroma, perfect for enhancing both sweet and savoury dishes. It beautifully flavours cakes, cookies, creams, hot chocolate and drinks like coffee or tea. In savoury cooking, it pairs well with curries, meat or vegetable stews, and marinades.
Fun fact: In ancient times, cinnamon was so valuable that it was offered to kings and used as a temple tribute.
