Description

Warm, sweet, a little sharp — this is the smell that turns plain tea into something worth sitting down for.

What It Is

Our Fresh Ground Cinnamon Powder (Dar Cheeni Powder) is ground fine from real cinnamon bark, giving you that reddish-brown powder without needing to grate a stick yourself. It’s used across both sweet and savoury Pakistani cooking, from tea to garam masala.

Taste, Smell & Colour

The taste is warm and a little sweet, with a mild sharpness that builds slowly rather than hitting all at once. The smell is strong and instantly recognizable, sweet and woody at the same time. The colour is a warm reddish-brown, fine and even throughout.

Texture

Fine and smooth, similar to other ground spices. It mixes easily into both liquids and dry masalas without leaving any grit behind.

Used In

• Cinnamon tea (dar cheeni chai)
• Garam masala blends
• Meat curries and biryani
• Halwa and other sweet dishes

Other Uses

• Sprinkle over oatmeal or cereal
• Mix into cake, cookie, or bread batters
• Add to coffee or hot chocolate for warmth
• Stir into yogurt or smoothies for a mild sweetness

Why Buy This One

Bazaar cinnamon powder is often cut with cheaper bark or cassia that fades fast, so the smell disappears within weeks. This one holds onto that strong, warm scent much longer, so what you use today still smells the way it should months later.

We pack it in craft paper, not plastic. That keeps the powder’s natural oils intact, without any plastic smell mixing into it over time.

How To Store

Keep it in a closed container, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Stored properly, it stays strong and fragrant for a long time.

If your chai or halwa ever tastes like something’s missing, it’s usually this. A pinch of fresh cinnamon powder is often the difference people notice but can’t quite name.
