Organic Ceylon Cinnamon Powder
Certified-organic true cinnamon with a delicate sweetness, floral aroma and gentle citrus warmth.
SpiceBloom Organic Ceylon Cinnamon Powder is made from Cinnamomum verum, the cinnamon species traditionally associated with Sri Lanka and commonly known as true cinnamon. Its refined flavour is noticeably softer and more aromatic than the bold heat many shoppers associate with standard supermarket cinnamon.
Sweet, floral and lightly citrusy notes make this powder exceptionally versatile. Sprinkle it over porridge, yoghurt and fruit, blend it into smoothies and warm drinks, or use it in cinnamon rolls, apple desserts, biscuits, curries and Middle Eastern-inspired dishes.
We pack it weekly in small batches in Auckland, giving customers across New Zealand a convenient source of certified-organic Ceylon cinnamon in sizes ranging from everyday pantry pouches to bulk 5kg packs.
Why Customers Choose True Ceylon Cinnamon
Its appeal is not simply that it is cinnamon—it is the softer flavour, distinctive aroma and broad versatility of genuine Cinnamomum verum.
Delicate, Complex Flavour
Naturally sweet and floral with gentle citrus notes rather than an aggressively hot or pungent finish.
Certified Organic
A single-ingredient certified-organic spice with no additional ingredients blended into the powder.
Remarkably Versatile
Suitable for breakfast bowls, smoothies, chai, coffee, baking, desserts, curries and savoury spice blends.
What Makes Ceylon Cinnamon “True Cinnamon”?
Ceylon cinnamon comes from the Cinnamomum verum tree. Cassia refers to several related cinnamon species that are commonly used in commercial cinnamon products. Both are genuine spices, but they differ noticeably in flavour, aroma and bark structure.
Ceylon cinnamon is generally softer, sweeter and more floral, while cassia varieties are usually stronger, hotter and more pungent. This makes Ceylon cinnamon especially useful in recipes where a refined cinnamon aroma should complement rather than dominate the other ingredients.
Ceylon cinnamon is also typically associated with lower natural coumarin levels than cassia. Exact amounts can vary between crops and products, so this distinction should not be treated as personalised dietary or medical advice.

Great love its real flavour
Great tasting, easy to use cinnamon.
This cinnamon is the best I’ve tasted ! Makes me realise how many inferior cinnamon products there are out there .
The Ceylon cinnamon is not quite what I expected. It does not dissolve with the milk on my cereal so I am not sure how much I am getting. Also I have yet to see any benefits to my blood sugar levels.
Thanks for your feedback, Peter. Our Organic Ceylon Cinnamon is 100% pure ground cinnamon bark with no additives, so it won’t fully dissolve in milk like an instant powder would. It will naturally remain slightly suspended or settle at the bottom.
For easier use, we recommend stirring it into warm milk, porridge, yoghurt or smoothies. Regarding blood sugar levels, cinnamon is widely used as part of a balanced diet, but individual results can vary and we wouldn’t want to promise a specific effect. We hope this helps clarify what to expect from the product.
Excellent, true cinnamon flavour & very fresh, totally unlike what the supermarket sells. Thank you!
