100% NATURAL & ORGANIC - Pure and unrefined, with nothing artificial added, our coconut sugar is 100% organic with absolutely no GMOs. Soft and light, it has just its natural, caramel sweet flavour like brown sugar. ETHICALLY SOURCED - Our coconut sugar is sourced from sustainable plantations in Indonesia, on the island of Java by a cooperative of just under 2000 farmers. At Coconut Merchant supporting farmers is the ultimate objective of what we do, we try and get as close to farmers and farmers' cooperatives as possible, and we work hard to make sure they get a fair price for their produce. MULTI-USE - With a taste like brown sugar, coconut sugar is perfect in cooking and baking as well as in coffees, teas, and smoothies - However you'd use normal brown sugar! BENEFITS - With a low reported GI (less than 55) than cane sugar and a sweet caramel taste, coconut sugar is a fantastic natural alternative for all your sweetening needs. This means its great for controlling sugar cravings, and managing blood sugar because it has a slow release into your body. Better still, coconut sugar is known to be high in zinc, iron, calcium, potassium and inulin, as well as antioxidants. HOW IS IT MADE? Coconut sugar is made from coconut palm sap, which is collected from the coconut palm blossom. The sap is then placed under heat until most of the water has evaporated - leaving behind deliciously pure coconut sugar.
