Cinnabon rolls use a special kind of cinnamon called Makara. This cinnamon is a trademarked variety of korintje cinnamon.
Makara cinnamon comes from the Korintjie region of West Sumatra, Indonesia. This region is famous for producing high-quality cinnamon.
One reason Makara cinnamon stands out is its high-volatile oil content. This makes the cinnamon more pungent and flavorful.
The high cellulose content also adds to its unique taste and aroma. This is why Cinnabon rolls have that distinctive, delicious flavor.
In summary, the secret to Cinnabon rolls’ amazing taste lies in the special Makara cinnamon from Indonesia.
