MADHAVA Organic Raw Coconut Sugar (16 oz, Pack of 6), Natural Sweetener, White Sugar Alternative for Baking and Cooking, Clean Coffee & Tea Sweetener, Vegan, Organic and Non-GMO

Product Description

MADHAVA Organic Coconut Sugar is sourced directly from two non GMO and organic co-ops in Central Java with farmers who share our values of doing good for people and the earth. Each co-op consists of hundreds of small family farms where the skills to harvest and cook the sap are passed down through generations. When MADHAVA started making honey in 1973, we were shocked that food companies tinker and toil with synthetic formulas, trying to re-create authentic flavors. We knew there was a better way. So, we ventured into deserts in Mexico, climbed trees in California, and sapped flowers in Asia – in an obsessive pursuit of purity. As our company has evolved since 1973, so has our passion for purity in all foods. It’s now our mission to get clean ingredients to tables across the country – and the world. In our pursuit of purity, we’ve partnered with the Clean Label Project to double and triple check that our MADHAVA methods prevent environmental and industrial contaminants from getting in, resulting in natural, organic, rich flavors you can trust. Every MADHAVA product is Clean Label Project certified and continuously tested for hundreds of toxins and contaminants.

With a mild and sweet flavor, Blonde Coconut Sugar provides a perfect one-to-one replacement to refined white sugar in your favorite recipes and as a sweetener for hot and cold beverages. Nutritionally rich and minimally processed, organic Blonde Coconut Sugar contains important nutrients, is naturally allergen free, and is sustainably produced without the deforestation common to the production of cane and other sugars.

A Nutritious Alternative to Refined Sugars
At 15 calories per one-teaspoon serving, Coconut Sugar has equivalent calories to both refined white sugar (16 calories per one-teaspoon serving) and beet sugar (16 calories per one-teaspoon serving), and significantly fewer calories than high fructose corn syrup (53 calories per one-teaspoon serving). But unlike most other sugars, Coconut Sugar offers a rich nutritional content that includes magnesium, potassium, zinc, iron, B vitamins, and amino acids (including glutamine). Coconut Sugar is also naturally free from allergens including gluten, is vegan, GMO-free, and Kosher certified.

A Sustainable Choice
Madhava Organic Blonde Coconut Sugar is sourced from sustainable organic producers in Indonesia. It is an organic, unrefined sweetener that is derived from the nectar of coconut palm tree blossoms, or buds. The nectar is boiled to evaporate the water and the remaining concentrated nectar is crystallized into sugar. Coconut palms produce an average of 50 to 75 percent more sugar per acre than sugar cane and use one-fifth of the natural resources. Coconut Palm trees can produce nectar and fruit for decades, making it a sustainably harvested crop that does not contribute to deforestation. Coconut palms are not genetically modified like the majority of conventional domestic sugar beets are.
