Coconut Blossom Sugar from Indonesia – Unrefined and Aromatic
- Harvested from the nectar of coconut palm flowers
- Distinctive taste with subtle caramel notes
What Is Coconut Blossom Sugar?
Coconut blossom sugar is an unrefined sweetener made from the nectar of coconut palm flowers. Due to its traditional production method, it is commonly used as an alternative to standard white sugar. Its characteristic flavour suits both sweet and savoury applications.
Production Process
The nectar is collected from the flower buds, then gently heated or evaporated until golden-brown sugar crystals form. A single palm can produce nectar for many years.
Flavour and Culinary Uses
Although the name suggests otherwise, coconut blossom sugar does not taste like coconut. Its flavour profile is more similar to brown sugar with mild caramel undertones. It is suitable for baking, desserts, hot beverages, and sauces. It pairs well with cinnamon, cardamom, and vanilla.
Origin and Sustainability
Our coconut blossom sugar is sourced from Indonesia. The palms are tapped over extended periods, and the production avoids intensive or chemical farming methods. Responsible cultivation practices help preserve resources.
Key Features
As an unrefined product, the sugar retains its natural characteristics. Colour and texture may vary slightly by batch. It is valued in various cuisines for its distinctive flavour and traditional production method.
