Ground Ceylon Cinnamon - 5 lb.

Details

Offer the most refined, delicate cinnamon available on your bakery or restaurant menu with this ground Ceylon cinnamon! Praised for its mild, subtle flavor with floral, fruity, and slightly bitter notes, this specialty cinnamon shines in rich, creamy recipes and fruit-laden desserts. The premium product is hand-harvested from the soft, inner bark of the Cinnamomum verum tree; unlike standard Cassia cinnamon trees, which grow for approximately two years before harvesting, Ceylon trees grow for at least four years, with precise tending throughout the year ensure optimal growth before harvest. The moist bark is shaved by hand into strips that curl into tender quills once sun-dried into tightly coiled cinnamon sticks. The smaller sticks are then blended into a smooth powder for an easy-to-use pre-ground cinnamon that increases efficiency in your establishment.

Ceylon cinnamon is particularly prized in Latin American cuisine; try it in your horchata or Mexican hot chocolate recipes for a delectable kick!
