Q1. What sizes and prices are available for Ceylon Dalchini Sticks?

A: Ceylon Dalchini Sticks are available in 20 g and 40 g packs, priced between ₹300 and ₹575 (inclusive of GST). They are imported directly from Sri Lanka and packed without preservatives to retain their natural aroma and quality.

Q2. What is the difference between Ceylon cinnamon and cassia cinnamon?

A: Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum), also known as true cinnamon, is milder, sweeter, and made up of thin, delicate layers of bark rolled into soft quills. Cassia cinnamon is thicker, harder, and has a stronger, more pungent flavour. Ceylon cinnamon also contains significantly lower levels of coumarin, making it the preferred choice for regular culinary and wellness use.

Q3. How can I tell if my cinnamon is real Ceylon cinnamon or cassia?

A: Genuine Ceylon cinnamon has thin, tightly rolled quills with multiple delicate layers that snap easily when fresh and release a naturally sweet aroma. Cassia cinnamon, in contrast, has thick, hard, single-layered sticks with a stronger and more intense smell.

Q4. Why is Ceylon cinnamon called "true cinnamon"?

A: Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum, meaning "true cinnamon") is the original botanical species of cinnamon, native to Sri Lanka. Most cinnamon sold globally is actually cassia, a less expensive substitute with a stronger flavour. Genuine Ceylon cinnamon is rarer and valued for its refined taste and premium quality.

Q5. What dishes and drinks can I use Ceylon cinnamon sticks in?

A: Ceylon cinnamon sticks are perfect for desserts, teas, golden milk, overnight oats, fruit compotes, biryanis, mulled beverages, and wellness drinks. Their naturally mild sweetness and delicate aroma make them suitable for both everyday recipes and gourmet cooking.

Q6. Is Ceylon cinnamon healthier than cassia cinnamon?

A: Ceylon cinnamon contains significantly lower levels of coumarin, a naturally occurring compound that may affect liver health when consumed in large amounts. Because of its lower coumarin content, Ceylon cinnamon is generally considered the preferred choice for daily cooking, herbal teas, and wellness-focused consumption.

Q7. How are these Ceylon cinnamon quills harvested and processed?

A: The bark of carefully selected cinnamon trees is gently peeled using traditional techniques, hand-rolled into delicate quills, and naturally dried to preserve its essential oils and aroma. This labour-intensive process creates the thin, layered sticks that distinguish authentic Ceylon cinnamon from cassia.
