Our cinnamon sticks are fragrant, tightly rolled quills of true cinnamon bark with a warm, sweet, and subtly spicy aroma that fills the kitchen the moment they are used. Whole cinnamon sticks offer a more complex, nuanced flavour than ground cinnamon — infusing slowly into liquids to release their full aromatic depth without the bitterness that can sometimes come from pre-ground spice.
Simmer in mulled wine, chai, and rice pudding for a warming, fragrant infusion. Drop into syrups and custards to perfume them with a delicate cinnamon note. Or grind fresh in a spice grinder for the most intensely aromatic cinnamon powder you've ever tasted — far superior to anything pre-ground.
Key uses:
- Mulled wine and cider — the essential warming spice for festive drinks
- Chai and spiced teas — simmer with cardamom, cloves, and ginger
- Rice pudding and desserts — infuse into milk and cream for a delicate flavour
- Syrups and infusions — steep in sugar syrup for cocktails and baking
- Grinding fresh — use a spice grinder for the most aromatic ground cinnamon
