Nature Boys Cassia Tubes: The Natural Alternative to Common Ground Cinnamon

Many believe that the ground cinnamon they sprinkle in their dishes is purely cinnamon. However, the truth is enlightening: much of the commercial ground cinnamon is cassia or a blend of cassia and cinnamon. This revelation brings forth an impressive product: Nature Boys Cassia Tubes. These aren't just another name for cinnamon; they are a unique spice with their own distinctive features.

Origins of Cassia and Cinnamon

Both cassia and cinnamon are derived from trees in the laurel family. The process of turning this bark into the spices we use is intricate. For cinnamon, once the bark is harvested, dried, and fermented, its outer layer is removed. As it dries further, it forms into the familiar cinnamon sticks.

Nature Boys Cassia Tubes, however, are derived from the cassia tree, scientifically known as Cinnamomum aromaticum or *Cinnamomum cassia*. Its preparation is similar to cinnamon, but the flavor is distinctly more robust.

True cinnamon, or Cinnamomum zeylanicum, has diverse uses, from a culinary flavoring to an embalming agent and preservative.
