Cinnamon Cassia also contains larger quantities of coumarin, a naturally-occurring compound, which in excessive quantities may have unpleasant effects. The European Commission has a maximum limit of 2mg/kg of coumarin in food and beverages. Cinnamon is produced by drying the inner bark of the cinnamon tree and grinding it into a powder.

History of Cinnamon
One of the world’s most important medicinal spices, Cinnamon has been in use by humans for thousands of years — as early as 2,000 BC. Ancient Egyptians employed it as a perfuming and preserving agent during the embalming process, and it was even mentioned in the Old Testament as an ingredient in anointing oil. It is a treasured spice and was once more expensive than gold.
