Our Cinnamon Almond Flavouring Oil is a fine blend of sweet cinnamon and freshly ground, cold-pressed almond oil. It enhances smoothies and 'golden milk', refines rice pudding and muesli and adds an authentic cinnamon flavour to desserts, ice cream and whipped cream.

Origin and history of cinnamon

Cinnamon is one of the oldest spices and has been used in China and India for thousands of years. From the 16th to the 18th century, cinnamon was considered a particularly precious and expensive spice in Europe and was used to demonstrate wealth. Today, it is an essential part of the autumn and winter season and blends perfectly with other sweet spices and flavours such as vanilla and cloves.

Almond oil as a precious base

The botanical name of the almond tree is Prunus dulcis Rosaceae. At the Ölmühle Solling, organic almond oil is obtained by cold pressing the ripe fruit of the almond tree. Almond trees prefer the climate of warm temperate zones such as Spain or Sicily, where the almonds for our almond oil come from. The almond is an elongated stone fruit with a rough, leathery skin. There are sweet and bitter almonds. However, only sweet almonds are pressed to produce edible oil. Almond kernels contain around 60g of oil per 100g. Pure almond oil is pale yellow in colour and has a mild almond flavour and aroma, making it an ideal base for our Cinnamon Spice Oil. This valuable oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids and oleic acid.

Our Cinnamon Almond Spice Oil is ideal for drinks and smoothies, for seasoning, baking and desserts. It is a classic addition to rice pudding and porridge. Store in a cool, dark place and use as soon as opened.

Recommended serving size: Our Cinnamon Almond Flavoured Oil is a condiment and should be used at a maximum of 1%.
