Coconut sugar presents a contemporary alternative for those who enjoy sweet flavors, serving as an excellent addition to a wide range of dishes. Visually resembling brown sugar, it is distinctively derived from coconut palm sap. In Southeast Asia, it has long been established as a trusted natural sweetener alternative.

Coconut sugar

Coconut sugar is an alternative to white sugar, which is gaining popularity. It is derived from the sweet derivatives of coconut palm.. It is available for sale as brown (light or dark) cubes, pellets or as a liquid.. It can be widely used in the food industry, bakeries, confectionery products and successfully replaces wheat sugar.. Its distinctive aroma and flavor is a great asset, desired by many of its supporters.

Coconut sugar composition

Coconut sugar is rich in many nutrients. It contains magnesium, potassium, zinc, and iron. It has a wide range of vitamins: C, B1, B2, B3 and B6. The basic sweetener is sucrose (7079%) and glucose and fructose (39%) are added to it.

Coconut sugar properties

Coconut sugar, as a sweetener, has a low glycemic index (IG = 35). It can therefore be used by diabetics to stabilize blood glucose levels. Naturally occurring enzymes slow down the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream. It does not cause a sudden jump in glucose in the body, which is very important in the course of type 1 and type 2 diabetes. It has a mild, caramel-coconut flavor, a pleasant aroma. It is used in cooking because of its heating potential.
