World Spice Cinnamon Cassia Chip delivers a robust, aromatic profile without the unpredictability of grinding whole bark. Sourced from dense Indonesian trees, these chips pack consistently high essential oil content, translating to stronger flavor release with every steep or simmer. Unlike powdered alternatives, the broken chip shape exposes more surface area for rapid infusion while remaining large enough to catch easily in a fine mesh strainer after cooking.
The natural purity of this cassia variety means you get a straightforward sweet-spice character that stands up well to extended heat. Removing the chips before serving ensures you capture optimal aroma without crossing into bitter, woody notes.

How do these differ from regular cinnamon sticks?
Chips fracture to expose more bark surface, cutting down steeping time while staying compact enough to trap in standard kitchen strainers without leaving grit behind.
What region cultivates this specific variety?
This batch comes from Indonesia, where the climate produces thicker bark with elevated oil density and a pronounced sweet-spicy backbone.
Can you reuse the chips for a second steep?
A quick second infusion yields noticeably lighter flavor. We recommend fresh chips for repeat batches to maintain consistency across pours.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
