Ceylon vs. Cassia Sticks
- Texture: Ceylon is soft and crumbly; cassia is hard and woody
- Layers: Ceylon has many thin layers; cassia is thick bark
- Flavor: Ceylon is mild and sweet; cassia is bold and spicy
- Grinding: Ceylon grinds easily; cassia requires power tools
Pro tip: Store Ceylon quills in an airtight container away from light. Their delicate essential oils are more volatile than cassia, so fresh storage matters more. Grind just before using for best flavor.
Health Advantage
Ceylon's ultra-low coumarin content makes it safe for daily consumption. If you use cinnamon regularly for wellness purposes (like blood sugar support), Ceylon is the only responsible choice. These soft quills give you pure Ceylon benefits.
