Penzeys Ground Cinnamon Blend 1.7 oz jar — Four-Cinnamon Mix, Hand-Mixed Balanced Flavor

Penzeys Cinnamon Ground 1.7 oz is a hand-mixed blend of four cinnamons (China, Vietnam, Korintje, Ceylon) designed to give baking, beverages, and breakfast a balanced, nuanced cinnamon flavor.

This small 1.7-ounce (½ cup) jar from Penzeys contains a carefully proportioned mix of China, Vietnamese, Korintje, and Ceylon cinnamons so you get brightness, sweetness, warmth, and aromatic complexity all at once. The blend is ready to use straight from the jar—sprinkle on toast, stir into oatmeal, or add to batters and sauces. The compact glass shaker makes it convenient to keep on the counter or the dining table for everyday flavoring.

What makes this four-cinnamon blend different from single-origin cinnamon?

The mix is crafted to combine the distinct qualities of four cinnamon types so no single note dominates. China cinnamon brings familiar warmth, Vietnamese adds rich intensity, Korintje contributes depth and sweetness, and Ceylon provides delicate floral and citrus hints.

• Balanced profile: bright top notes with a warm base.
• Ready-to-use blend eliminates guesswork in recipes.
• Hand-mixed for consistent flavor across jars.

How can I use Penzeys Cinnamon Ground in everyday cooking?

Use it anywhere you’d normally use cinnamon—baking, cereals, fruit, savory dishes, and drinks. Because the blend covers a wide flavor range, a single jar works well for both sweet and savory applications without needing multiple cinnamons.

• Sprinkle on oatmeal, yogurt, or fresh fruit for instant flavor.
• Add to cookie and muffin batters for rounded spice notes.
• Stir into rice, popcorn, or hot beverages for aroma and warmth.

How much should I use and how is the jar sized for storage?

The 1.7 oz (½ cup) jar is sized for regular home use and fits easily in a spice rack or counter shaker. Start with ¼ to ½ teaspoon in recipes and adjust to taste; its blended profile often allows using slightly less than single-origin cinnamon for a similar perceived intensity.

• Standard measuring: 1/4–1/2 teaspoon per serving in drinks or breakfasts.
• Use 1–2 teaspoons in most baked goods recipes, adjusting to preference.
• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat and sunlight.

Is this blend suitable for people sensitive to stronger cassia cinnamons?

The blend includes both cassia-style cinnamons (China, Vietnamese, Korintje) and Ceylon, which is milder. Because the four are balanced, the overall flavor tends to be less one-note intense than straight cassia, but it still carries warming compounds characteristic of those varieties.

• Contains Ceylon for a gentler aromatic edge.
• Not formulated as a hypoallergenic or medical product.
• Choose smaller quantities if you prefer subtle cinnamon presence.

Who is this for? Home cooks and bakers who want the convenience of a single jar that delivers a complex, bakery-ready cinnamon flavor without blending multiple tins. It’s ideal for people who keep spices on the counter for everyday use—those who sprinkle cinnamon on breakfasts, bake seasonal treats, or want an all-purpose cinnamon that performs well across sweet and savory recipes. The compact 1.7-ounce jar is also a good option for gifting, trying a new flavor profile, or keeping in a small kitchen where space is limited.
