canela
Bark spice, Spanish
Canela is the Spanish word for cinnamon, used in English primarily when discussing Latin American cuisine or the specific variety of cinnamon common in Mexican cooking—softer and sweeter than the hard Ceylon or cassia sticks familiar elsewhere: The recipe calls for a stick of canela.
The word also appears as a given name and in place names throughout the Spanish-speaking world.
