True cinnamon is made from the bark of Cinnamomum verum. However, much of the stuff found on grocery store shelves in the United States is from Cinnamomum cassia which is considered by some to be less flavorful. The inner bark of some pine trees is edible as is the bark of willow, alder, hemlock, basswood and birch.
