This spice, obtained from the bark of cinnamon trees, is mainly used as an aromatic condiment and flavoring in cuisines, sweet and savory dishes, breakfast cereals, snack products, tea and traditional foods. This product, which we generally use as powdered cinnamon, also has cinnamon stick/cinnamon bark options. Using cinnamon sticks is a practical option for making herbal teas and sweet syrups.
