I am a secondary teacher of English in Southern Spain. I studied MFL in Jaén and I got a DPSI certificate in Law in England. I started my teaching career in Newcastle back in 2000, where I lived for 3 years. Once I returned home, I taught in a public school and got ready to sit the "oposiciones" exam, which I passed!!! Currently, I am teaching in Spain, which has become my definite residence in since 2004.

"Canela en rama" = Cinnamon stick*

Brilliant, wonderful, exquisite, tip top...

I could go on forever...but I am positive that you got the sense of the expression. Some people only use "canela" or its diminutive "canelita" on its own.
"Ser canela fina" also carries the same
figurative meaning --> to be sheer class.
"Esto ha quedado canela (en rama)"
"Que baile Lucía, que lohace canela"
"Madre mía, ¡qué presentación! Canelita en rama"
