Product details
This Demeter raw cane sugar from sugar cane has a relatively neutral taste due to its low molasses content, making it ideal for sweetening all kinds of foods and beverages.
Production:
Raw cane sugar is cultivated by organic farmers in Brazil or India. The climatic conditions in South and Central America as well as in India are optimal for sugar cane cultivation. Since sugar cane must be processed immediately after harvesting, Naturata sources the raw material from regions where a sugar mill is located that can produce the specific type of sugar. After harvesting, the sugar cane is stripped of its leaves, chopped, crushed multiple times between simple rollers, and then pressed. The fibrous parts are filtered out. After cleaning, the sugar cane juice is concentrated at low temperatures and slight vacuum. The highly concentrated syrup is mixed with a few crystals of unrefined sugar, allowing the sugar to crystallize. Once the sugar crystals reach a certain size, they are centrifuged away from the remaining syrup, dried, sifted, and packaged. The molasses content is therefore lower than that of Sucanat whole cane sugar. The smaller crystals and lighter color compared to Demerara are due to a longer processing time.
