I'm a convert
I've been making my own vanilla extract for over a decade and used to buy my beans based on reviews at a Infamous Global seller. Was never sure what I would get. Then I found this company! The beans were beautiful! Fragrant, moist but not too moist, easy to cut open to expose the seeds and each Bean was six to seven inches long. I'm a happy extract maker! 💝💃🥳
High Quality Vanilla - excellent customer service.
Slo Food group team takes great care of their customers. Received a broken bottle of Vanilla and it was immediately handled. Received my replacement bottle within 3 days.
This extract is used to make our Tahitian Vanilla Cakes!

Why Choose Ceylon Cinnamon?
How to Use Ceylon Cinnamon Powder
Interesting Facts About Ceylon Cinnamon
Consumers often buy Ceylon cinnamon because it contains minimal amounts of coumarin, a naturally occurring compound found in much higher quantities in Cassia cinnamon, which can be a concern when consumed in large amounts. If you're mindful of your coumarin intake, Ceylon cinnamon is the ideal alternative. From a flavor perspective, Ceylon cinnamon is known for its mild, nuanced sweetness that enhances dishes without overpowering them. Whether you're adding it to your morning oatmeal or using it in baked goods, you'll notice a distinct difference in taste compared to the harsher, more pungent flavor of Cassia cinnamon. Prefer the spicy kick of Saigon cinnamon instead? Find Vietnamese cinnamon powder in our shop too.
Ceylon cinnamon is incredibly versatile:
- Sprinkle it on fruits, oatmeal, or smoothies for a touch of sweetness.
- Add it to baked goods, rubs, or sauces to elevate flavors.
- Infuse it into teas, soups, and stews for a warm, aromatic essence.
- Pair it with nutmeg and other warming spices to capture that classic autumn flavor.
The natural sweetness of Ceylon cinnamon makes it a great alternative for those looking to reduce sugar without compromising on flavor.
Did you know Ceylon cinnamon was once more precious than gold? Treasured since ancient times, this spice has been used in everything from Egyptian embalming rituals to medieval trade wars. Thankfully, today we can enjoy its rich flavor without those sky-high prices.
Our Ceylon cinnamon powder is Non-GMO, gluten-free, all-natural, and certified Kosher by EarthKosher. It's sourced from true Cinnamomum verum growers committed to the same rigorous quality standard, harvested and ground fresh before being shipped worldwide.

Why Freshness Matters More for Ceylon Cinnamon
Ceylon cinnamon has a naturally low volatile oil content, roughly 1-2%, compared to other cinnamon varieties. That's part of what gives it such a delicate, subtle flavor, but it also means ground Ceylon cinnamon loses its potency far more quickly than Cassia once it's milled. This is exactly why we grind our Ceylon cinnamon powder fresh from our own whole Ceylon cinnamon sticks rather than sourcing pre-ground powder that may have been sitting on a shelf for months.
