What is the most cinnamon tasting thing I can buy?

I love cinnamon (sweet cinnamon) but I can't find any cakes/pastries/cookies that are cinnamon enough. You know the filling in a cinnamon swirl? I want the whole thing to taste like that x 10.

In this age of salted caramel and red velvet and hibiscus drizzle, has anyone found a product that made them say "No. That is too much cinnamon."? If so, please advise so I can purchase it.

Ole and Steen's cinnamon social!

I have found my people 😊

I absolutely love cinnamon flavoured sweets and cakes. I can't get enough of Hot Tamales and Big Red when I go to America.

Check out the recipe for Monkey Bread on the BBC good food site. It's wonderful.

Old fashioned sweet shops sell boiled sweets called cinnamon balls.

I tried cinnamon hearts while in Canada years ago. They were too strong for me.

Make cinnamon apple puffs- forget the shops! Go wild on the cinnamon home baking!

A hearty breakfast/ mid morning snack...
Buy some rolled premade puff pastry from shop, cut up an apple into slices -get your cinnamon spice pot out.

Cut puff pastry into thin 3-4cm strips, add cinnamon dusting in middle, along one edge place thin cut up apple crescent slices all down that side (skin/ curved side out), fold puff pastry from middle over in half to secure them and then roll up the other way, so it looks like picture of ones I baked earlier, and place on (fry light sprayed or greased baking paper) like so, for 10 mins in warmed up oven 120'- voila , as cinnamony as you like apple puffs ! Add dusting of icing sugar if you want. 😋

You can add sultanas, caster sugar, whatever you want to middle of homemade apple puffs as long as you put that cinnamon spice in there 😂😋

Have you tried a Cinnamon Sugar pretzel from Auntie Anne's?

In the interests of research I googled. You can get 500g of cinnamon balls on Amazon.

Half a kilo is fairly extreme. I usually content myself with 150 grams if I'm passing the shop down the hill from St Paul's.

Cinnamon jelly beans and cinnamon chewing gum. Both absolutely vile. I'm sure you'll love them. I spat them out.

They put that shit in everything over here (Canada).
Cinnamon toothpaste

ILiveInSalemsLot · 13/04/2019 07:27

I agree with just go crazy at home.
Porridge with grated apples and cinnamon
Folllowed by cinnamon eggy bread or cinnamon pancakes.
Cinnamon buns or carrot/apple/fruit cake with cinnamon for afternoon tea
Cinnamon rice pudding or stewed fruit with cinnamon for dessert
Add cinnamon to your coffee and hot chocolate too.

Spice drops are amazingly powerful essences - a few drops will impart a strong cinnamon flavour to anything.

A sweet that I would imagine is only available in Scotland called a lucky tattie. Its a flat disk of something sweet dipped in cinnamon, they seemingly used to contain small charms. They are available in traditional sweet shops.

KenDoddsDadsDog · 20/04/2019 22:51

Ikea sell cinnamon buns. I could go through bags of them.

Dontsayyouloveme · 20/04/2019 22:59

Not as good as fresh cinnamon rolls but these are good for emergencies:

Do you have a bread Maker?
Cinnamon and sultana bread but quadruple the cinnamon..Panasonic have recipes online

ScaredofMomo · 22/04/2019 17:26

Monin cinnamon syrup (on Amazon). It's supposed to be for lattes but just eat it but it's lovely on other things too or just on its own.

Koreans have a cold cinnamon ginger tea which is very cinnamon-y: www.beyondkimchee.com/korean-cinnamon-ginger-punch-sujeonggwa/. You can purchase it in cans from a Korean grocery store.

This is the drink and H Mart delivers.

Cinnamon Altoid sweets.

I hate to say this but I have heard that too much cinnamon is bad for your health.

I know it's good for you and I love it on porridge but have heard too much is bad for you Iykwim.

Say you'd have to be eating an awful lot though!

Dogparty · 30/04/2019 18:17

I’ve been eating an Aldi cereal called cinnamon chips. Really yummy!
