Organic Coconut Sugar

The harvested nectar from coconut blossoms resembles brown molasses. Evaporation transforms it into a solid, crystallized sugar, which is very practical for use in recipes, hot drinks, or as a sprinkle on yogurt. It has a more or less intense caramelized flavor and a darker or lighter appearance depending on the plant variety, harvest time, and processing method. Coconut blossom sugar is a good alternative to refined sugars.

Like birch sugar, maple syrup, honey, and agave syrup, coconut sugar is a natural sweetener that easily replaces white sugar. Made from the nectar of coconut palm flowers, it is one of the oldest sweeteners. It has been consumed by humans for thousands of years, first appearing in Asia over 6,000 years ago. Today, more and more people are looking for alternatives to consume more intelligently and healthily. Coconut sugar has become popular in our regions in recent years. In crystal form, it is used, like cane sugar or beet sugar, in many culinary preparations.

Coconut sugar contributes to ecological sustainability in several ways. Its processing is simple because it does not require refining. Compared to sugarcane, growing sugar from coconut palms requires less land, as they produce more abundantly for the same area. The palm tree does not require many resources, which is a definite advantage.
