Cinnamon oil versus cinnamon extract?
I am trying to make cinnamon candy and the recipe calls for Cinnamon Oil. All I can find at the grocery store is Cinnamon Extract. Are these the same thing?
Thanks!

No, they are not the same thing. The extract is made with alcohol. The cinnamon oil will blend easier and have a stronger, richer, more natural flavor. You can use the extract if you really want to. Using the extract will cause major splattering, overflow, and burning: if you are not very careful; when added, so be careful. I have used the extract in place of the oil before, and it was ok, and just ok. The oil is by far the best choice. Good Luck.
No they are not the same thing Cinnamon extract has alcohol in it as do all extracts . Cinnamon oil is a”true” form of cinnamon and is very flavorful.
