Details
Ceylon cinnamon, or true cinnamon, is botanically different from cassia cinnamon. Ceylon has a more subtle flavor than its cassia cousins due to its lower volatile oil content. The people of Europe and Mexico prefer this cinnamon, which is often used for poaching spiced stone fruits, in pickling recipes, and for brewing hot cocoa. Ceylon cinnamon’s light and understated flavor makes it perfect for dishes that don’t have other flavors competing for the foreground. These quills are great in dishes like cinnamon ice cream, Dutch pears, custard, steamed puddings, stewed rhubarb, dessert syrups, and mixed into whipped cream.You can also use this cinnamon in savory dishes like Indian curries, aromatic rice, or braised pork shoulder. 1 weighted ounce is 3-4 whole sticks or about 1/4 cup of ground cinnamon.

Very good quality and the right type of cinnamon. They grate easily and don't just crumble like others I have used! Great product and a great price.
I purchased two types of cinnamon sticks to see which one I liked better for tea. Both were terrific but the Ceylon was my clear favorite. I will be purchasing more soon.
As usual, all of the spices from The Spice House are high quality and have great flavor. Couldn't get any better.
Super fresh and delicious! Love it with my oatmeal and coffee in the mornings.
I use a Ceylon cinnamon stick in my morning coffee!! Love the subtle hint of cinnamon it brings to my morning coffee. I also use a sprinkle of ground Ceylon cinnamon to light flavor my oatmeal and muffins.with crystallized sugar.
