About Cinnelon | Ceylon Cinnamon Blog

Why we started

The problem with cinnamon online

Most cinnamon sold around the world is cassia — not true Ceylon cinnamon. Yet most people don’t know this distinction exists. When they search online, they find vague health claims, conflicting information, and very little practical guidance.

“People should know what they’re actually buying — especially when it comes to food and health.”

Cinnelon was built to fix that. We cover what Ceylon cinnamon actually is, why the type matters, how to identify it, and how real people use it — without the confusion or the hype.

Our approach

How we write

Plain language

No jargon. No overclaiming. We explain things the way a knowledgeable friend would — simply and directly.

Sri Lanka roots

Our connection to Sri Lanka — the home of true Ceylon cinnamon — gives us a grounded understanding of how cinnamon is grown, processed, and graded for quality.

Practical focus

We focus on real-life use over theory. How do you spot fake cinnamon? How do people actually use it? That’s what we answer.
