Ceylon cinnamon ("true cinnamon" is milder, sweeter, and tan-colored with thin, papery layers,

while Cassia (common cinnamon) is stronger, spicier, and dark brown with thick, woody layers.

Ceylon is the safer, healthier option due to very low levels of coumarin, a compound that can cause liver damage, which is present in high amounts in Cassia.

Appearance (Sticks): Ceylon looks like a rolled cigar with multiple layers of delicate bark. Cassia is a single, thick, hard layer of bark.

Health Impact: Cassia contains roughly 250 times more coumarin than Ceylon, making Ceylon preferred for regular consumption or supplementation.

Price & Availability: Cassia is cheaper and common in most grocery stores; Ceylon is more expensive and considered a premium spice.
