Ceylon cinnamon is true cinnamon, and it has a thin, multi-layered bark and a sweet, warming, delicate taste and aroma (in contrast to cassia cinnamon, which is spicy and peppery). Use it in sweet and savory dishes. The sticks are soft enough to be freshly ground with a spice grinder or fine grater.
No anti-caking agents added. Lumps may form, which is natural and normal.
Appearance: The thin, multi-layered bark of true cinnamon is most often a redish brown. The bark is curled in on itself as it is dried and cured. The ground Ceylon Cinnamon is light brown, with a slight tint of red.
Typically used: The dried bark is used whole or powdered, and the twigs and leaves are distilled into an essential oil.
Origin: Ceylon cinnamon is cultivated from the inner bark of the evergreen tree, Cinnamomum verum. Native to Sri Lanka (formerly called Ceylon), Bangladesh, Burma, and the south-eastern coast of India, the spice has been considered a gift fit for gods and has been traded for centuries.
Flavor: Sweet, warming, delicate (in contrast to Cassia Cinnamon, which is warming and somewhat spicy and/or peppery)
Aroma: Sweet and somewhat pungent
Culinary uses: Ceylon cinnamon is used in both sweet and savory dishes. It has been popularized in the United States as the perfect pairing for apples. The sticks are soft enough to be easily ground in a coffee or spice grinder. In Mexico, Ceylon cinnamon is used in chocolate, and in the Middle East the spice can be found in savory meat dishes.
Other uses: Cinnamon is used in perfumes, cosmetics, cordials, potpourris, incense, tinctures, and essential oils.
Ceylon vs. Cassia: Cassia bark can be described as hard, thick, and rough in comparison to Ceylon Cinnamon. Cassia is more tan than reddish brown. When dried, Cassia Cinnamon sticks appear as a single thick layer that curls in from two sides, whereas Ceylon Cinnamon has many layers that usually curl altogether.

We have been looking for true cinnamon for a while for our homemade kombucha. This is extremely flavorful and absolutely the best cinnamon.

I’m a cinnamon gourmet. This cinnamon is my favorite because of its gentle goodness. It’s not powerful and in you face like cassia. I enjoy it on my oatmeal in the morning. I’ve already bought a backup jar. Thank you, Pure Indian, for some great eating!

I love spices, but this Ceylon spice tastes like no other I have ever had. It tastes just like it was just freshly ground!! Wonderful strong and sweet cinnamon spice.

I enjoyed reading about each item prior to purchasing. The aroma of each spice is prevalent and inviting. My family appreciated the introduction to new flavors. My order arrived in two days. That was really surprising and very well received.
