Cinnamon
The flavours of cassia and cinnamon are subtly different – both contain a volatile oil giving the warm, sweet flavour we associate with cinnamon but cassia (from Vietnam or Indonesia) contains more of this oil so is hotter and stronger. Cinnamon is incredibly versatile and lends itself well to both sweet and savoury dishes. True Sri Lankan cinnamon - despite containing less of this oil - also contains eugenol which gives different flavour notes of clove and citrus.

Excellent range of products with very quick delivery. I have used The Delivery on numerous occasions and would recommend them to everyone.
As usual a very speedy delivery of all the items. A great company to deal with. The products themselves are very good and well packaged.
This cinnamon is so tasty I can eat it as if it was candy. Every time a piece breaks off when grating a stick I end up chewing on it.
Great service, added extras and top quality spices!
