Palm sugar is naturally produced in a sustainable, eco-friendly way, as trees are maintained for their sap instead of being cut down. Palm sugar is, therefore, a sustainable industry, with a minimal environmental impact when harvested using traditional techniques.

“THOUGHTFULLY TASTY”

No chemicals, bone char, or animal by-products are used to make or de-colorize this sugar making it ideal for vegans too.

“BOUNTY FROM MOTHER EARTH”

MADE WITH HEART

Our Palm Sugar is made from the sweet stem sap of the “palm blossoms”

The flowers that bloom to make the actual palm tree fruits. When the blossoms are mature, the nectar must be skillfully retrieved by climbing to the top of the palm tree several times a day.

The tapped sap, referred to as a “toddy”, is slowly extracted over a period of time by tapping the end of a cut flower blossom stem.

Produced by slowly heating this sap between 40°C - 120°C for a period of time between 1.5-3 hours

Palm nectar is produced by slowly heating this sap between 40°C - 120°C for a period of time between 1.5-3 hours to thicken it into syrup.

This process also causes the sap to deepen in color. The nectar or syrup is further evaporated to remove the water content which forms a dark caramel-colored crystallized sugar that adds rich color and depth of flavour to baking.

Can be combined with drinks or food

Palm crystals dissolve easily in liquid and are convenient to use for sweetening drinks, such as coffees and herbal teas. For dessert recipes, palm sugar makes a great substitute for white sugar and can be blended with other natural sweeteners, like yacon, lucuma or stevia to create the perfect combination of sweetness.
