Broken Cassia

Description

Are you looking for a type of cinnamon that’s strongly aromatic, reasonably priced, and versatile for processing? If your answer is “yes,” then Broken Cassia might just be the perfect fit. Whether you’re a spice processor or an importer, I believe you’ll find great value in this product. Let’s dive deeper into why Broken Cinnamon Cassia deserves your attention.

What is broken cassia?

Broken Cassia (broken cinnamon)refers to pieces of cassia bark that are fractured or irregular in shape. These fragments are typically produced during the process of peeling, drying, cutting, and transportation. While they may not meet the aesthetic standards of full-stick cinnamon, they contain equally high concentrations of essential oil (2–5%) and offer the same flavor profile that cassia is known for.

At VietGlobal Export (VGE), broken cinnamon is sorted, cleaned, and packaged according to international standards:

• Moisture content: ≤13.5%
• Oil content: 2% to 5%
• Size range: 1–3 cm or irregular sizes
• Admixture: ≤1%

VGE offers flexible packaging options and bulk supply tailored for manufacturers, wholesalers, and industrial applications.

Where does our broken cassia come from?

Our Broken Cassia is harvested from the northern mountainous provinces of Vietnam, especially Yen Bai and Lao Cai — regions famed for producing some of the world’s highest-quality cassia cinnamon. The unique combination of high altitudes, cool climate, and mineral-rich red basalt soil creates ideal conditions for cassia trees to thrive. As a result, the bark harvested from these regions contains exceptionally high oil content, a deep natural color, and a strong, sweet aroma that is highly sought after in the global spice trade.

What sets VietGlobal Export apart is that our processing facility is located right within these growing regions, allowing us to maintain optimal freshness and full traceability from farm to final product. This proximity gives us a clear advantage in quality control, as we are able to work directly with local farmers and cooperatives — many of whom have been cultivating cassia for generations.

Once harvested, the cassia bark is brought to our certified, modern factory, where every step of the process is handled with care and precision:

• Gentle sun-drying or controlled drying systems to preserve essential oils
• Meticulous hand and machine sorting to ensure consistent size and purity
• Clean, food-safe packing under hygienic conditions, tailored for export

Every lot of cinnamon is handled by trained staff with attention to detail, ensuring that from raw material to container loading, our products meet the highest standards. With quality embedded in each stage, we deliver cinnamon that is not only flavorful but also clean, reliable, and ready for industrial applications worldwide.

All our operations are carried out under internationally recognized certifications, including:

• ISO 22000 (Food Safety Management)
• HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points)
• HALAL Certification
• FDA Registration for export to the U.S.

These standards reflect VGE’s commitment to quality, safety, and consistency for our global partners.

Why so many buyers choose broken cassia

A Smart, Cost-Saving Option

One of the most compelling reasons buyers choose Broken Cassia is its affordable price point. As it does not require the intensive shaping or sorting of whole cinnamon tubes, processing costs are significantly reduced.

This makes Broken Cassia a preferred choice for clients who value functional benefits over visual aesthetics, especially when the cinnamon is to be ground or extracted.

Scales Easily for Manufacturing

In high-volume environments such as spice factories, herbal tea producers, and essential oil manufacturers, Broken Cassia proves to be a smart and scalable raw material. Its irregular form is not a disadvantage — it actually streamlines production by removing the need for extra processing steps.

Manufacturers can achieve consistent output with lower raw material costs, while still maintaining strong flavor and aroma in their final products.

Easier to Store and Ship

Because of its shape and density, Broken Cassia can be packed more tightly in cartons or sacks, optimizing space inside containers. This translates into:

• Lower freight costs per ton
• Easier warehouse handling
• Fewer losses from breakage

In fast-paced international logistics chains, these advantages are critical for maintaining operational efficiency.

Where broken cassia goes – GLOBAL HOTSPOTS

Broken Cassia has earned its place in a wide range of industries thanks to its versatility, aroma, and practicality. Whether used in powder form, oils, teas, or flavoring compounds, this form of cinnamon delivers consistent performance at scale. Common applications include:

• Cinnamon powder for bakery, spice blends, and food seasoning
• Essential oil extraction for use in wellness and cosmetic products
• Herbal infusions and tea blends where appearance is secondary to flavor
