Cinnamon toothpicks and stirrers are thin, straight sticks cut from Ceylon cinnamon. Stirrers flavour coffee, tea, mulled wine and cocktails, and toothpicks are sold as a natural alternative to wooden picks. Ceylon cinnamon is ideal because it is mild and sweet and its quills are thin and layered.

Forms

• Toothpicks: thin sticks, often cut from the woody inner stems or tightly rolled quill
• Drink stirrers: longer quills in lengths to suit a cup or glass
