Taste: Real or True Cinnamon is sweet and delicate where as Cinnamon Cassia is strong to peppery
Color: Real Cinnamon is a tan color, whereas Cinnamon Cassia is a reddish brown to dark brown.

Feel: The surface of Cinnamon Cassia is rough and uneven, whereas Real Ceylon Cinnamon bark is smooth.
Usage: Real Ceylon Cinnamon is perfect in sweet and subtle dishes that require a delicate flavor.
