Cinnamon-blossom sugar, patissier edition with Christian Hümbs
Made and packed in Klingenberg. Fine white cane sugar meets the delicate aroma of cinnamon blossom and the warm spice of cinnamon bark. The result is a gentle, balanced sweetness with a fine cinnamon note, elegant and rounded, without being intrusive. Developed in cooperation with the renowned patissier Christian Hümbs, the mix of cinnamon blossom (mild-floral) and cinnamon bark (classically savoury) is more balanced than conventional cinnamon sugar.
How to use
Ideal for refining cakes, pastries and desserts. Particularly fine in hot drinks such as coffee, cocoa and chai. Also for scattering over rice pudding, apple compote, pancakes or fresh berries. A classic in the run-up to Christmas over baked apple, in biscuits and on stollen.
Good to know: store dry, dark and well sealed so the fine cinnamon note is preserved. With correct storage it keeps for several years.
