Description: Cassia Bark C/S is produced from the dried bark of Cinnamomum cassia, a tropical evergreen tree native to southern China and widely cultivated in Southeast Asia. The tree typically grows 10–15 meters tall with aromatic, leathery leaves and rugged bark that naturally peels in long strips. The harvested bark displays rich reddish-brown hues and a firm, fibrous texture.
In cut-and-sifted form, the dried bark is broken into small, uniform pieces while retaining its natural structure and distinctive aromatic profile. The irregular surface and textured appearance preserve the visual characteristics of the bark, making it suitable for blends, decorative displays, and craft applications where recognizable botanical components are preferred.
Mature bark is carefully harvested, cleaned to remove debris, and dried under controlled warm-air or shade-drying conditions to stabilize colour and texture. After drying, the material is mechanically cut into uniform fragments and sifted to remove fine dust, resulting in consistent, manageable pieces. This ensures a stable, high-quality botanical ingredient suitable for a variety of applications.
Uses: Cassia Bark C/S is used in culinary spice blends, aromatic displays, botanical craft projects, layered jar arrangements, and educational herb kits. Its fibrous texture, natural reddish-brown colour, and distinctive aroma make it ideal for visual, tactile, and aromatic applications. The uniform cut pieces allow easy incorporation into creative and decorative formulations where whole bark fragments are desired.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
