Cassia Sticks
From: $4.00
Cassia (also known as Chinese or Baker’s Cinnamon, ) is a spice harvested from the bark of a tropical tree. Many bakers prefer cassia to cinnamon as it has a stronger flavour that lends itself well to savoury dishes. Cassia sticks are cinnamon’s cooler, spicier cousin with a little extra flair! These aromatic sticks pack a punch of warm, sweet, and subtly spicy flavor, perfect for adding a cozy touch to anything from your morning coffee to a hearty stew. They’re like magic wands for your kitchen—drop one into a pot, and suddenly your dish is transformed with rich, fragrant goodness. Cassia should not be confused with cinnamon, which is also the bark of a tropical tree. Though similar in flavour, cinnamon is less pungent and more suited to sweet cooking than savoury.
