Cassia bark (both powdered and in whole, or "stick" form) is used as a flavouring agent for confectionery, desserts, pastries, and meat; it is specified in many curry recipes, where Ceylon cinnamon is less suitable. Cassia is sometimes added to Ceylon cinnamon, but is a much thicker, coarser product. Cassia is sold as pieces of bark (as pictured below) or as neat quills or sticks. Indonesian Cassia sticks can be distinguished from Ceylon cinnamon sticks in the following manner: Ceylon cinnamon sticks have many thin layers and can easily be made into powder using a coffee or spice grinder, whereas cassia sticks are extremely hard and are usually made up of one thick layer. |
Cassia bark comes to the factory in raw form. Upon drying they curl inwards from outer edge into round sticks. Usually it is single curled because of its thickness. Thin barks can curl from both edges making it double curled sticks. The length of the sticks may be upto 1m and thickness of bark is between 1-4mm. Sticks are sorted manually in different grades depending on its thickness, colour and quality. Curled sticks are cut into required lengths from 6cm to 60cm. Other sticks are used as broken chips or grinded into powder. |
