Cinnamon Crush (Cinnamomum zeylanicum) is a sweet, warming spice often referred to as Ceylon cinnamon. The crushed form infuses more quickly than whole quills, making it easy to use in teas, hot chocolates, custards, and baking. It brings a smooth, aromatic warmth without overpowering other flavours. This is a single-ingredient culinary spice with no additives.
