Often called the ‘True Cinnamon', the Ceylon Cinnamon are actually small, tropical, evergreen trees and it is their bark which imparts the lovely scent and taste of their essential oils; cinnamon. Ceylon Cinnamon is light brown in color, is solid, thin, and cigar-like in appearance and has a pleasant delicate aroma and sweet flavor. The tree bears clusters of small star-shaped flowers in the spring, becoming small, dark purple fruit. Its fruit actually smells like cinnamon, but the spice is actually made from the bark of the tree.
