CH Organic Rapadura Sugar 1kg

Because Rapadura is not separated from the molasses (unlike lots of other sugars) and is not subject to being heated at high temperatures (it is dehydrated at a low heat), it retains its natural vitamins and minerals. Rapadura Sugar is recognised for its delicious caramel flavour, its fine grain texture and golden colour. It can be used in place of white, raw or brown sugar in any recipe. For many years, Cyndi has recommended including natural sugar as part of a healthy diet. Our Organic Rapadura Sugar is unrefined cane sugar sourced from the Valle region in Western Columbia. It is pressed and naturally dried at low temperatures to maintain nutritional properties and there is no other processing involved – unlike other sugars that can be highly processed, refined and bleached. Rapadura is the pure juice extracted from the sugar cane (using a press), which is then evaporated over a low heat, while being stirred with paddles, then ground to produce a grainy sugar. It has not been cooked at high heats nor spun to change it into crystals and the molasses has not been separated from the sugar. It is produced organically, and does not contain chemicals or anti-caking agents.
