Cassia cinnamon bark, botanical name Cinnamomum cassia, is the dried bark harvested from mature cassia trees, widely traded as Chinese cinnamon in global spice markets. It differs from Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) in bark thickness, texture and flavour profile.

Our cassia bark is sourced from cultivated planting areas in southern China. Harvested bark goes through peeling, manual sorting, cleaning and natural air drying. No solvent extraction, no artificial colouring, flavourings or preservatives are added during processing. The finished bark shows reddish-brown to deep brown colour, thick rolled or grooved shape, firm texture and a distinct warm, sweet-spicy aromatic note. Natural volatile oil, cinnamaldehyde and coumarin occur naturally within the bark tissue.

We supply multiple available forms for bulk buyers: whole cassia quills, broken bark chips, cut segments and ground cassia powder. Several commercial grades are offered to match different formulation needs. Every shipment is sampled and tested by independent third-party labs, covering moisture, volatile oil content, foreign matter, heavy metals and microbial indicators. Supporting documents including COA and MSDS can be provided upon request.
