Notes

*TIP:
Texture should be very velvety – like baby food applesauce.  So blend till very smooth and then blend some more!
So good when served cold with a dash of cinnamon.
Ceylon cinnamon is delicate, with a citrus-floral aspect to lighten the woodsy notes.
Saigon cinnamon is bold and more aggressive and contains a bit more oil.
Indonesian cinnamon is the sweetest and most approachable of the Cassia varieties.
Chinese Cassia cinnamon has straightforward, up-front cinnamon flavor.
