What to Look For — Choosing Your Cinnamon Powder

01

Ceylon vs. Cassia Verification

In ground form, visual distinction is difficult; demand a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis verifying true botanical species (Cinnamomum verum vs. cassia).

02

Coumarin Threshold Compliance

Cassia naturally contains up to 0.8% coumarin, whereas Ceylon has only trace amounts (<0.004%), making Ceylon necessary for European Union (EC No 1334/2008) daily supplement standards.

03

100% Genuine Bark (Zero Adulteration)

Ensure powder is ground exclusively from clean cinnamon bark, completely free from exhausted spent bark, foreign wood fillers, or added starches.

04

Low-Temperature Pin Milling

Cryogenic or cool-pin milling prevents heat build-up, protecting the delicate essential oil (1%–3%) and volatile cinnamaldehyde from dissipating during grinding.

05

Moisture Content (≤8%–10%)

Fine powder has high surface area; keeping moisture below 10% prevents microbial activity, clumping, and transit caking.
