Cukier Palmowy Ekologiczny
"palm sugar
The sugar juice is extracted from the blossoms of the Palm trees. The Arenga Palm Tree is highly appreciated for the high quality of its sugar juice.
Processing
The palms are grown by a cooperative, to which several farmers are affiliated. The palms are grown in an area that was burnt down in the past and has now been turned into a modern sustainable sugar extraction by new growth of palm trees. Using a complex method, the thick juice is processed into Arenga sugar. This sugar is supplied by the Masarang foundation. In addition, the landscaped plantations provide a new habitat for endangered species. Palm sugar resembles brown sugar, but unlike ordinary table sugar and brown sugar, palm sugar contains many more minerals, such as magnesium and potassium. The structure of palm sugar is similar to that of soft sugar and therefore very suitable for baking. Palm sugar has a characteristic caramel taste and is ideal for sweetening food and drinks."
