Ahhh…where can I find Cassia Bark,I am so clueless as to what it even is.
Ah, an herbalist, I see. (me too!) This has to be wonderful!
Ah, the cassia bark….it is basically just like cinnamon, so you really don’t HAVE to have it. It is a bit different than cinnamon though. You can buy it at regular grocery stores…(it looks like cinnamon and is rolled up from both sides so that it looks like a scroll) You can just leave it out though…no big deal…
