About this item
KEY FEATURES: Simply Organic Ground Ceylon Cinnamon is potent, “true” cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum). It has a more complex, and yet more delicate, flavor profile than the more common cassia cinnamon. Its fruity and slightly sweet taste and warm, spicy aroma won us "BEST" Ceylon Cinnamon by Epicurious in 2018. Our Ceylon Cinnamon’s mild flavor is especially suited for finer desserts with subtle flavors that will allow this cinnamon to shine, such as a chai spiced crème brulée. It’s also ideal as a finishing spice, so add it to French toast and sprinkle it on your hot cocoa. Ceylon is the type of cinnamon traditionally used in Mexican cooking, where it's found in such diverse fare as chorizo sausage, rice pudding and beverages. This Ceylon cinnamon powder’s texture and flavor also make it a great spice to include in apple compote, ice cream, pancakes and crepes. This product is packaged in a clear glass jar, so you can see what you’re getting. Bottle and metal cap are fully recyclable — and reusable. SMALL FARMER PARTNERSHIPS: Simply Organic Ceylon Cinnamon is sourced from a long standing co-op partner in Sri Lanka, where we help select and develop the product. Close relationships with suppliers allow us to actively engage in sourcing for both our Ceylon and Vietnamese Cinnamons. (Ceylon and Vietnamese cinnamon are different botanicals with very different flavor profiles — so check out both of them!)

Frequently Asked Questions
Will adding this cinnamon to my morning routine actually support my wellness goals?
Many wellness-minded bakers stir Simply Organic Ceylon Cinnamon into warm lemon water, golden milk, and overnight oats as part of a calming morning ritual. Its warm, slightly sweet aroma pairs naturally with mindful self-care moments, and the clean, certified organic profile means no fillers or additives to interrupt your routine.
Is this cinnamon a good choice for clean-eating households?
Yes. Simply Organic Ceylon Cinnamon is certified organic, non-GMO, and contains a single ingredient: 100% ground Cinnamomum verum. There are no anti-caking agents, preservatives, or added sugars, which makes it a staple for clean-eating kitchens and wellness-focused pantries.
Can I use this cinnamon in a wind-down evening drink without it being too stimulating?
Absolutely. A gentle sprinkle in warm milk, chamomile tea, or a dairy-free alternative makes a soothing bedtime beverage. The fruity, mildly aromatic character of true Ceylon adds warmth without the sharper, sometimes bitter bite of common cassia.
Does the aroma of this cinnamon actually help set a calming mood in the kitchen?
Yes, customers often describe the scent of freshly opened Simply Organic Ceylon Cinnamon as warm, slightly sweet, and comforting. A small amount in simmering apple compote, baked goods, or a stovetop potpourri can fill the kitchen with a relaxing aroma perfect for a mindful evening.
How does true Ceylon differ from regular cinnamon in a wellness routine?
True Ceylon (Cinnamomum verum) is prized for its delicate, complex sweetness and lower coumarin content compared to common cassia. For daily users who sprinkle cinnamon every morning or evening, this makes it a gentler, more refined choice for long-term wellness habits.
Is this cinnamon good for a calming bath or body-care ritual?
While Simply Organic Ceylon Cinnamon is a food-grade spice, many wellness enthusiasts add a teaspoon to homemade body scrubs mixed with honey and coconut oil for an at-home spa moment. Always patch-test first and avoid sensitive areas.
Can I blend this into a smoothie for a daily health ritual?
Yes. A quarter teaspoon per serving blends beautifully into banana, apple, or pumpkin smoothies, complementing other spices like nutmeg and ginger without overpowering them.
Will this cinnamon help me cut back on added sugar in my morning oatmeal?
True Ceylon has a naturally sweeter, more fragrant profile than cassia, so most home bakers find they can use less and still get a satisfying sweet-spicy note. It pairs particularly well with sliced apple, pear, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
Is this a better wellness option than a typical grocery-store cinnamon?
For wellness-focused shoppers, the combination of certified organic sourcing, non-GMO verification, fair-trade Sri Lankan co-op partnership, and a recyclable glass jar offers a level of purity and intention you typically do not find in standard supermarket spice bottles.
How does Simply Organic Ceylon compare to cassia cinnamon for coumarin sensitivity?
True Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) naturally contains far less coumarin than common cassia. Customers who are mindful of coumarin intake and use cinnamon frequently often choose Ceylon specifically for that reason.
Why should I pay more for Ceylon instead of standard grocery cinnamon?
The higher price reflects the slower-growing Cinnamomum verum tree, hand-harvested bark, and direct trade with a long-standing Sri Lankan co-op. For wellness routines that use cinnamon daily, the cleaner coumarin profile and more delicate flavor are often worth the investment.
Is it worth buying a larger multi-pack if I am only an occasional baker?
If you are using cinnamon for daily wellness rituals like morning lattes or evening tonics, the 1.94 oz two-pack offers better value and reduces the chance of running out mid-routine. Occasional bakers may prefer the smaller 0.75 oz jar.
Will the glass jar feel premium enough to leave out on my open shelving as part of my wellness aesthetic?
Yes. The clear glass jar with a reusable metal cap is designed to look at home on an open pantry shelf or coffee bar. Many wellness-minded customers display it intentionally as part of a curated, calming kitchen vignette.
How do I use this ground Ceylon cinnamon in everyday cooking?
Simply Organic Ground Ceylon Cinnamon is a versatile single-ingredient spice. Use a quarter teaspoon in coffee, tea, or smoothies, half a teaspoon in oatmeal or yogurt, and one to two teaspoons in baked goods like snickerdoodles, banana bread, or apple pie. It also shines in savory dishes like chorizo, Mexican rice pudding, and braised lamb.
What is the best way to store this cinnamon after opening?
Keep the jar tightly sealed with the metal cap and store it in a cool, dry, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat. Properly stored, the flavor will stay vibrant for up to two years. Avoid refrigerating, as moisture can cause clumping.
Can I use this cinnamon in place of regular cinnamon in a recipe at a 1:1 ratio?
Yes. True Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) can be substituted one-for-one for any recipe that calls for ground cinnamon. Because Ceylon has a more delicate, slightly sweet flavor, you may find you need slightly less to achieve the same aromatic impact in dishes like French toast, pancakes, or chai-spiced desserts.
Is this cinnamon compatible with a spice rack organizer that uses standard-sized jars?
The Simply Organic Ceylon Cinnamon jar measures approximately 2 inches wide and 4 inches tall for the 1.08 oz size. It fits most standard round spice rack organizers, drawer inserts, and small cabinet lazy Susans. Larger size variations may require a deeper shelf.
Can I refill this jar from a bulk bin of cinnamon?
The glass jar is designed to be reusable. Many customers rinse, dry, and refill it with bulk spices, homemade blends, vanilla sugar, or even non-food items like bath salts. The metal cap provides a tight seal suitable for refilling.
What comes in the box when I order this cinnamon?
Your order includes the Simply Organic Ground Ceylon Cinnamon in a clear recyclable glass jar with a reusable metal cap, sealed for freshness. A multi-pack contains two individually sealed jars. No additional accessories are required to begin using the product.
Is this cinnamon safe to consume daily?
Yes, in typical culinary amounts. True Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) naturally contains far lower levels of coumarin than common cassia cinnamon, making it a preferred choice for people who enjoy cinnamon daily in coffee, oatmeal, smoothies, and baked goods. As with any food, moderation is recommended.
How do I know if my jar of cinnamon is still fresh?
Fresh ground cinnamon has a strong, sweet, slightly fruity aroma. If the scent has faded significantly or the powder has lost its reddish-brown color, it is time to replace it. Properly sealed and stored, Simply Organic Ceylon Cinnamon stays fresh for up to two years from the production date.
What is the difference between Ceylon cinnamon and cassia cinnamon?
Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) is true cinnamon, native to Sri Lanka, with a delicate, sweet, slightly citrusy flavor and very low coumarin content. Cassia cinnamon, the variety most commonly sold in supermarkets in North America, has a stronger, spicier, more pungent flavor and higher coumarin levels. Ceylon is generally considered the premium choice for both flavor and dietary reasons.
