Organic Ceylon Cinnamon Powder - Premiumquality that you taste  This first-class cinnamon powder from Sri Lanka, the original home of the cinnamon tree, is fine and pure, with a particularly intensive fragrance and taste from genuine Ceylon cinnamon. It is, without a doubt, the tastiest and freshest cinnamon powder we have ever tried. Genuine cinnamon has been used by man since at least 3000 BC and has been growing naturally in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, India and Burma. Ceylon cinnamon was introduced to the European market by the Portuguese navigator Vasco da Gama in 1502, which he brought from Sri Lanka (Ceylon). Nowadays it is more common to find in the market the Cassia cinnamon variety, which comes from China, rather than the more aromatic genuine cinnamon. The aroma of the cinnamon tree comes primarily from cinnamon oil as well as further aromas such as eugenol, which also occurs in cloves, and coumarin. The genuine cinnamon is not only used for seasoning, but also has a long traditional use as medicine that is now scientifically documented (*1). For example, it is now known that cinnamon stimulates the appetite, promotes digestion and is also useful for bacterial and fungal infections, inflammation and for the regulation of the blood sugar. Cinnamon contains a very high antioxidant capacity of 131'420 μmol TE / 100g (ORAC value = Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity).

Real bourbon vanilla powder from Madagascar Update: Due to various customer inquiries, we have added the 25g vanilla powder from Naturkostbar to our range as a supplement to the 15g Rapunzel. On the right side (dropdown) you can choose the different variants. Vanilla is the fruit of a species of white orchid that is native to Mexico and has spread to many tropical countries over time. Vanilla is now one of the most sought-after spices and is also known as the "queen of spices". The cultivation and processing of vanilla has always been time-consuming because a lot has to be done by hand. In addition, the available space is limited and demand is constantly increasing. All of this leads to vanilla being one of the most expensive spices in the world today. Unfortunately, real bourbon vanilla powder from Madagascar has become a rarity because the severe floods in Madagascar in 2016 and 2017 resulted in major crop failures and long-term damage to crops. You can find information on this in the NZZ online article, among other things. While the much cheaper synthetically produced vanillin consists of only one substance, the special taste of real vanilla is a harmonious composition of almost 200 individual substances! Real vanilla therefore not only has a unique taste and enticing aroma, it is also healthy. It was considered and cultivated by the peoples of Central America for centuries as a remarkable gift from nature. The pharmacies of the 18th century carried it as a health remedy in the form of powder, infusions and tincture. Use With its unique range of aromas, it can be used in a variety of ways for all sweet dishes, such as dessert sauces, ice cream, smoothies, pastries, compotes, jams, homemade chocolate and fruit bars. Also very tasty in drinks such as cocoa, nut milk and herbal teas. Origin Grown and processed in Madagascar.
