Cinnamon (Dalchini) FAQs

Common questions about sourcing, quality, and importing Indian Cinnamon (Dalchini).

Quality is assessed based on the Cinnamaldehyde content (minimum 55% of volatile oil) and moisture levels (max 12%). For Quills, the tightness of the roll and the lack of "feathering" or breakage are key visual indicators of premium export grade.
Sourced from Kerala and Karnataka, Indian cinnamon is prized for its balanced sweetness and aromatic depth. It is highly valued in the European bakery and confectionery industries for achieving a "true" cinnamon profile without the harshness of lower-grade varieties.
We supply Cinnamon Quills (5cm/10cm), Broken Cinnamon (for grinding), and fine Cinnamon Powder (mesh 40-80). These are used extensively in spiced beverages, seasonal baking, and as a natural anti-diabetic component in supplements.
Our standard MOQ for wholesale cinnamon is 200kg. We offer retail-ready packaging (50g to 500g) or bulk 25kg PP/Jute bags. For high-priority orders, we provide 3-7 day air freight delivery worldwide.
