Ground Cinnamon
Ground cinnamon is a widely used spice. It is used in many desserts, chocolate, spicy candy, tea, hot cocoa, and liqueurs. Cinnamon can also be used in pickling.
Organic Quinoa
Organic quinoa (pronounced keen-wah) is a light, fluffy, edible seed that feels and tastes more like a grain.
Thanks to its mild, somewhat nutty and irresistible flavor, organic quinoa is an immensely popular
food. But this "mother grain" is also valued for its tremendous nutritional content.
