Just Panela Organic Unrefined Cane Sugar - 2 Pound - Sweeten Your Coffee with Natural Panela - Unprocessed and Handcrafted Cane Sugar with Intact Natural Minerals - Jaggery Powder

Delicious and amazing, the most unprocessed sugar I've ever seen! It has a strong but nice flavor if you eat it straight just to try, but in my coffee it works perfect without any odd notes. I personally do some of these and some of stevia to keep my calories lower, a great combo. Yes It's pricey, but it's one of a kind, and allows me to carry on the go. I only use one packet a day at most, so still doable!

I wanted to try unrefined sugar and this is excellent. Slightly stronger flavor than refined and dissolves better than refined in iced tea.

taste really good

Sugar cane is a wonderful plant and it is sad to me that it is so mistreated and by consequence, so too the people who consume it. This product, panela (aka jaggery, gur, rapadura, etc.), is the unrefined, original form of cane sugar that has a stellar mineral profile, many health benefits and of course an amazing flavor. The problem is that Western culture is completely based on white or refined sugar. Even so-called "brown" sugar is still a refined product. When you refine panela to get the addictive white sugar, molasses is left over. So molasses, an even more wonderful mineral supplement than panela (since it's more concentrated), is a byproduct of the white sugar industry. The problem is that our bodies need the minerals in the molasses part of panela in order to process the sugar without ill effect. White sugar is very acid-forming in the body and is balanced by the calcium and other alkaline minerals that come naturally with the original form of sugar before it is refined. When you consume white sugar as most people do and not panela, your body finds other ways to get alkaline minerals to balance the acidity of the white sugar. Your bones, teeth and blood vessels step in to offer calcium to the cause. This is why out of respect for yourself, for the cane plant and whoever will end up taking care of you when you are ill and feeble, panela should be used in place of white sugar. It is PLENTY sweet and delicious and substitutes just fine in baked goods and drinks. Can you imagine the flavor depth of organic danish made with panela instead of white sugar? One popular panela drink is simply "agua de panela" which is just panela and water. It's practically natural gatorade! You can use the granulated variety like this or if you find it in blocks just grate or slice a chunk in your water bottle before a physically arduous endeavor. One of my favorite things to make with this is a barbecue sauce. I'll tell you the ingredients and you get to play with the proportions! ~Tomato paste ~Brown rice vinegar ~Molasses ~Smoked Paprika ~Panela ~Tamarind paste ~Real salt ~Coconut water if you need to thin out (I like it thick!) Blend or mix and enjoy a sweet and savory condiment that won't wreck you pancreas, bones, teeth and pretty much every system of your body! Thanks for a great product.

Tasty natural alternative to processed white sugar. I enjoy the molasses like flavor.

Perfect!

I love this unrefined cane sugar. Taste great, and you don't need a lot.

Very good brown sugar.

I will buy again. Just what we needed
