Description
Organic Ceylon cinnamon sticks from Sri Lanka — true cinnamon quills in an 80g Wild Elephant tin.
Cut from the bark of Cinnamomum verum in Sri Lanka — the island formerly called Ceylon — these quills are made of many fine, papery layers, quite different from cassia's single thick curl. The flavour is delicate, citrusy-sweet and fragrant, and Ceylon is naturally very low in coumarin, making it the everyday choice for regular cinnamon drinkers and bakers.
Best for
- Infusing chai, teas and warm milk drinks
- Mulled wine and spiced winter drinks
- Simmering into rice puddings and poached fruit
- Grinding fresh for banana bread, muffins and biscuits
FAQ
How do Ceylon quills differ from cassia sticks? Ceylon quills are thin, layered and delicate with naturally very low coumarin; cassia is a single thick bark curl — bolder, hotter and higher in coumarin. Compare with Organic Cinnamon Cassia Sticks - Wild Elephant - 100g.
Sticks or powder? Sticks are for infusing and grinding fresh; for stirring straight into porridge and bakes, choose Organic Ceylon Cinnamon Powder (True) - Wild Elephant - 100g.
Supplied in an 80g recyclable tin — a tidy fit for the spice shelf.
