How to Use Cassia Cinnamon Sticks

Cassia Cinnamon Sticks are a bold and warming spice essential for both sweet and savory dishes.
Unlike ground cinnamon, whole sticks infuse flavor slowly, making them perfect for simmering, steeping, and slow-cooking.

Pairs beautifully with: cloves, nutmeg, allspice, ginger, black pepper, cardamom, cumin, coriander, star anise, vanilla 

Usage Tips

  • Steep in liquids: Add 1–2 sticks to teas, ciders, mulled wine, or hot chocolate for a rich, spiced aroma.
  • Simmer in savory dishes: Drop into soups, stews, curries, chili, or braised meats for subtle depth and warmth.
  • Infuse in baking: Place a stick in milk or cream while heating for desserts like rice pudding, custards, or chai-spiced bakes.
  • Grind fresh: Break and grind sticks for an ultra-fragrant cinnamon powder when you want a burst of intensity in baked goods.

Fine Spice Tip:

After simmering, rinse and dry the stick to reuse it once more—then tuck it into sugar or tea jars for extra aroma.
