Cinnamon Myrtle Flakes

Cinnamon Myrtle (Backhousia myrtifolia)

Cinnamon myrtle has a naturally warm, sweet and spicy flavour that closely resembles traditional cinnamon but with softer herbal and slightly peppery notes. When cooked, its flavour deepens and becomes more rounded, adding a subtle native bush aroma that enhances both sweet and savoury dishes.

Why you'll love it

Sourced from sub-tropical areas of Australia, Cinnamon Myrtle is a unique alternative to conventional cinnamon, offering a delicate and complex spice profile. It has been traditionally used for its antibacterial properties and as a digestive aid. With its naturally sweet and warming notes, it can be a great way to add flavor without additional sugar.
