Description

Wholesome Fair Trade Organic Sucanat is made from 100% certified organic sugar cane in the heart of Costa Rica. Its made by simply crushing freshly cut sugar cane, extracting the juice and heating it in a large vat. Once the juice is reduced to a rich, dark syrup, it is hand-paddled. Hand paddling cools and dries the syrup, creating the flavorful dried granules we call Sucanat. Nothing is added and nothing is taken out! Because Sucanat still contains all of the canes natural molasses, it has a deep brown color and a distinct, natural molasses flavor that enhances many foods. It is naturally gluten-free, and can be substituted for brown or white sugar or in any recipe and it is especially good in chocolate-based recipes, baked goods, BBQ sauces and marinades.
