Frontier Co-op® Organic Ceylon Cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) comes from a small evergreen tree called Cinnamomum Zeylanicum that belongs to the Lauraceae family. It is native to Sri Lanka. Its bark is used to make cinnamon, and it has a distinctive shape, lighter color tone, and more delicate flavor compared to other types of cinnamon.
This cinnamon adds a sweet and spicy flavor to teas, hot chocolate, and many baked desserts. Sprinkle some shavings into your banana bread, ice cream, or even hot chocolate for a flavorful burst with a pleasant aroma. You can use these sticks as an air freshener too!
Ceylon cinnamon is widely used and recognized for its yellow and tan-brown color. The aroma is less harsh than other types of cinnamon. It is both spicy and sweet, and can freshen any room or entice the senses when used in baked goods.
Frontier Co-op Organic Ceylon Cinnamon is grown and processed in Sri Lanka. There are no artificial additives or chemicals used at any step of the growing process. Our Ceylon cinnamon is certified organic and kosher.

Orange Hot Chocolate
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Warm-up with this decadent dark chocolate drink. This recipe infuses almond milk with notes of cinnamon and orange, and is highly adaptable: Substitute a different plant-based milk, make it vegan with dairy-free chocolate and a dollop of coconut whipped cream, or choose chocolate with a higher cocoa percentage for an ultra-rich drink. It’s easily doubled, tripled or even quadrupled to serve a crowd.

- 1-1/3 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 orange peel (whole or in wide strips)
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate (coarsely chopped)

Garnishes
- Whipped cream (or coconut whip)
- Orange chocolate (shaved)
