At Shyali’s, we take pride in offering premium-quality cinnamon sticks that elevate both taste and health.
The Origin and Types of Cinnamon
Cinnamon is derived from the inner bark of trees belonging to the genus Cinnamon. There are two main types:
- Ceylon Cinnamon: Known as “true cinnamon,” this variety is lighter in colour with a delicate, mildly sweet taste.
- Cassia Cinnamon: This type is darker and stronger in flavour. It’s commonly found in stores and widely used in recipes across the globe.
Shyali’s Whole Spice Combo includes these high-quality cinnamon sticks, offering the perfect balance of flavour for every occasion.
