I think you are right that it is Cassonade, but does it mean a vessel or sugar?

Looking a bit more I found this.  Unfortunately 
the post doesn't say what they were quoting from
http://forum.wordreference.com/showthread.php?t=740951
cassonade [ n. f.
* 1574; probablt de l'a. provenç. cassonada ® casson
¨ Sucre qui n'a été raffiné qu'une fois, appelé 
aussi sucre roux, à cause de sa couleur.

One more reference in Rumpolt
Kleine Reniancken gesotten in Cassenat/ die fein frisch seyn.
where Reniancken is apparently some sort of fish
