The unique processing and global transportation of this tantalizing bark have been practiced for thousands of years.   Unlike many spices made from the fruits or vegetation of plants, cinnamon differs in that it is made up of the inner bark of the tree.   The process for obtaining this spice is quite unique; requiring the removal of the trees' outer bark, followed by scraping the inner bark by hand into long narrow strips, and finally allowing it to dry.   Today cinnamon continues to be globally loved, playing roles in a variety of cuisines and ranging in application from sweet to savory dishes.    Where to buy Ceylon cinnamon?   Spicely Organics different size packaging give all type of consumers the opportunity to try the sweet-spicy flavor of Cinnamon.
