Perfect Cinnamon Sticks for Baking, Cooking & Drinks

Cinnamon is a widely used aromatic spice and flavor enhancer in various cuisines, from sweet and savory dishes to breakfast cereals, snack foods, tea, and traditional recipes. The delightful aroma and flavor of cinnamon come from its essential oil and other constituents like eugenol.

Cinnamon sticks are harvested from the inner bark of tropical evergreen trees. The bark is peeled off in strips, naturally curling up into cinnamon quills as they dry. This type of cinnamon is also known as Cassia Cinnamon and is the cinnamon found in most grocery stores. Ground cinnamon is the powdered form of this bark, and one cinnamon stick is approximately equivalent to one teaspoon of ground cinnamon.

Spicy World Cinnamon Sticks are carefully hand-picked for their high quality and premium flavor, sourced from the beautiful forests of Vietnam. These Saigon Cinnamon sticks boast an impressive oil content of 4.5-5.5%, ensuring a distinct richness and captivating aroma that sets them apart.

Cinnamon is a versatile spice that can be used in a multitude of recipes, both sweet and savory. In baking, cinnamon adds depth and richness to cakes, cookies, bread, and pastries, making them irresistibly delicious. For example, to make classic Cinnamon Buns, you can prepare the dough by combining flour, sugar, salt, yeast, warm milk, melted butter, and a beaten egg. After kneading and rising, the dough is rolled out, spread with melted butter, and sprinkled with a cinnamon-sugar mixture, then rolled tightly and cut into buns. These are baked at 350°F for 15-20 minutes and topped with a cream cheese frosting.

Another delightful creation is Cinnamon Cake, where dry ingredients like flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt are mixed, while softened butter and sugar are creamed together, then eggs and vanilla are added. The dry and wet mixtures are alternated, and the batter is poured into a greased pan, sprinkled with a cinnamon-sugar mixture, and swirled before baking at 350°F for 35-40 minutes.

Beyond culinary uses, cinnamon also shines in DIY beauty routines. To make an exfoliating Cinnamon Body Scrub, simply combine granulated sugar, coconut oil (or any carrier oil), and ground cinnamon. For a fragrant touch, you can add a few drops of your preferred essential oil. This delightful scrub will leave your skin feeling rejuvenated and refreshed.

Immerse yourself in the distinct richness and captivating aroma of this versatile spice and unlock a world of culinary and self-care possibilities.
