about the spice

Cassia is a stronger flavoured cousin of Ceylon cinnamon and adds sweetness to savoury dishes and warm savoury notes in sweets. Cassia is processed from the inner bark of the tree which is pulled off into rolls during harvesting. An essential part of Chinese five spice and gorom moshla, cassia cinnamon truly deserves a special place in your pantry.

And what better way to celebrate cinnamon than a sticky cinnamon bun? We oomph-ed it up with tok dhyarosh (roselle) syrup and coconut cream.

 

flavour warm, astringent
aroma woody, sweet
appearance Cassia cinnamon appears as robust grayish brown woody sticks and slightly harder to snap than true cinnamon. These are not as tightly coiled as true cinnamon.
