Mexican Sweet Blend
Mexican Sweet Blend
Mexican Sweet Blend is our own original blend of sweet Mexican flavors: piloncillo (Mexican brown sugar) and canela (Mexican cinnamon). Bake with it, sprinkle it over fruit, stir it into coffee or hot chocolate, or combine it with savory spices for a barbecue rub. Locally made by us in small batches.
Piloncillo (pronounced pee-lone-SEE-yo) is the classic Mexican brown sugar with a dark, subtly fruity flavor. Canela (pronounced can-AY-lah) is the Mexican name for Ceylon cinnamon, which is the true, original cinnamon commonly used in Mexico.
We make this blend with love in small batches in the Adventure Kitchen.
It’s delicious sprinkled over fruit, stirred into hot chocolate or coffee, sprinkled over sugar cookies, or baked into cakes or pies. You can also combine it with savory spices such as Aleppo pepper for a sweet-heat barbecue-type rub.
1/2-cup sized jar.
Ingredients: Mexican piloncillo sugar, organic Ceylon cinnamon
Stir this into something sweet, and let it stir your soul with adventure!

Hot chocolate sweetened with Mexican piloncillo sugar and spiked with Ceylon cinnamon to evoke Mexican champurado, the classic chocolate atole beverage. Add a splash of bourbon for a boozy version.
