Organic 3" Ceylon Cinnamon Sticks (Quills) (125g)

Cinnamon is usually from the dried bark of the Cinnamomum zeylanicum (Ceylon cinnamon) or Cinnamomum cassia (Chinese cinnamon) tree.Cassia cinnamon contains more of something called coumarin . Ceylon cinnamon contains trace amounts of coumarin. Researchers in 1954 found coumarin caused liver damage in laboratory animals. A 2006 meta-study in "Food and Chemical Toxicology" specified that while a clear link existed between coumarin and liver cancers in lab animals, it was still safe for use in dietary quantities. Hence there can be an issue if it is taken as a supplement. So I always get the one with less coumarin to ensure I can enjoy my cinnamon in abundance without fear of causing myself harm.

These are expensive but so much better than the other sticks normally available in Asian shops. They also blitz down very nicely, if you're looking for that kind of result in your cooking, and imbue a lovely flavour to cooking.

This is the first time I got ceylon cinnamon so i was scared to order powder. Like a stick I can see it's a real ceylon cinnamon. I am happy with the purchase. Nice flavour nice smell.

Great value, wonderful stick size and the aroma is gorgeous.
