Three big differences: thickness of the rind, color and taste.
The thickness of Ceylon cinnamon bark is very thin, about 1mm thick, with a firm but friable and irregular texture.
The color of Ceylon cinnamon is orange-ochre
In terms of taste, the smell is not very aromatic, but in the mouth it is very aromatic, sweet and fragrant.
The bark of Chinese cassia cinnamon rolls is thicker, about 3mm thick. It is orange in color but leans towards brown. It is also not very aromatic on the nose and remains fragrant on the palate, but not very sweet or even slightly bitter.
Unlike Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum), Chinese cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia) or Indonesian cinnamon (Cinnamomum burmanii) contain a high dose of coumarins, one of whose compounds is o-hydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (o-HPA). The problem with coumarins, and this compound in particular, is that they are hepatotoxic (toxic to the liver) and nephrotoxic (toxic to the kidneys) at high doses.
