Ceylon cinnamon sticks - organic / fair trade
Organic Ceylon cinnamon, also called real cinnamon (Cinnamomum Verum), is distinguished by its mild flavor and subtle aroma.
Umano was among the first to discover this variety of cinnamon, little known here around fifteen years ago.
Unlike Chinese cinnamon or cassia cinnamon, Ceylon cinnamon is not pungent or allergenic.
Ceylon cinnamon can also be recognized by its crumbly texture which makes it easy to crumble between two fingers.
Finally, unlike cheap spices, ours are steam sterilized and not irradiated, in order to preserve their benefits and nutritional properties.
Ideal for desserts or to bring a sweet and woody flavor to your dishes. It is also used as a sweetening agent in hypoglycemic diets.
