Product Specification:
1. Product Overview
Cinnamon and Cassia are aromatic bark spices derived from the inner bark of trees from the Cinnamomum genus. They are widely valued for their warm, sweet, and woody flavor, making them staples in both sweet and savory recipes across global cuisines. While similar in flavor, Ceylon cinnamon (also known as “true cinnamon”) has a softer texture and more delicate taste, while Cassia is more pungent, darker, and thicker.
We are a trusted manufacturer and exporter from Gujarat, India, supplying both Cinnamon and Cassia in stick (quill), broken, and powder forms. Our products are hygienically processed, sun-dried, and sorted to meet national and international food-grade standards.
