I have substituted this maple sugar in recipes (2/3 cup maple sugar = 1 cup cane sugar) with much success. Great product.

I wasn't sure exactly what to do with Maple Sugar, so I just started adding it to my everyday baking items. It adds a nice warm flavor to cookies/pancakes/breads, etc. Blends well and tastes great on top of oatmeal.

Looking for something else when I stumbled on this sugar. Thought, "what the heck, give it a try". I love the packaging that allows for spoon or sift. The sugar itself does not clump and dissolves well. I've tried it on hot cereal and pork & beans. It is delicious and adds that something special for your palate to enjoy. Buy with confidence and prepare to be delighted.

5.0 out of 5 stars Diabetic testimonial, May 6, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Big Tree Farms SweetTree Organic Coconut Palm Sugar, Blonde, 16-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 6) (Grocery)
Being a type II diabetic is challenging when it comes to desserts. Concerned that I was consuming too many products using artificial sweeteners and while researching some other products (allergic to stevia and agave), I came across the SweetTree Blonde evaporated palm sugar which claims a glycemic index of 35. My body has had positive gylcemic reactions to sesame and coconut products and I made the purchase on faith that the glycemic load using this sugar versus artificial sweeteners would be similar. I made a batch of cookies using Splenda and another batch using the SweetTree blonde sugar and then tested my blood glucose. I did this repeatedly over the course of about 7 days and was pleasantly surprised that my blood sugars in both cases were consistently within a few points of each other. So, for my body I found this sugar to be just as good a substitute as splenda. For my money, I would rather put something in me that is closer to nature. We use it now in our morning coffee and...

5.0 out of 5 stars Vegan, organic sugar, December 4, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Big Tree Farms SweetTree Organic Coconut Palm Sugar, Blonde, 16-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 6) (Grocery)
Farmers produce coconut palm sugar by making slits in the buds of a coconut tree to collect the sap. The sap is boiled until it thickens and then dried into hard cakes, which are ground into powder (see photo of the sugar I posted above). Coconut palms grow under drought conditions in sandy soil. They not only use one-fifth the water and soil nutrients of sugar cane, they also enrich (vs. deplete) the soil and produce 50-70% more sugar per acre.

The Big Tree Farms brand of coconut palm sugar is not mixed with any other type of sugar as some other brands are. It is a 100% organic, natural sweetener which is not filtered or bleached as white sugar is. When sugar is bleached, the process involves using ground up animal bones, thus, this non-bleached sugar is vegan.

The major claim to fame of coconut palm sugar is that lab tests have apparently shown that this product has a glycemic index (GI) of 35, compared to agave nectar at 42, honey at 62, cane sugar (sucrose)... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Better price at Whole Foods, February 24, 2010
This review is from: Big Tree Farms SweetTree Organic Coconut Palm Sugar, Blonde, 16-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 6) (Grocery)
I found this exact same product at Whole Foods for 3.99 per bag, and you can also ask them to order a box for you at a ten percent discount. So I did, and the box of 6 bags (same as this one on Amazon for $29.91) was only $21.55. Amazon usually has such excellent prices, so I am surprised to see this product listed for such a high price.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Good Stuff, June 28, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Rapunzel Pure Organic Whole Cane Sugar, 24-Ounce Packages (Pack of 6) (Grocery)
FYI, this is Rapadura sugar. The company seems to have minimized that in the new packaging (or removed it completely on the new bags!?) - probably to get new customers to purchase it in stores, whom might have put it back not knowing what rapadura is.

Rapadura is a very historic whole food and completely unprocessed from cane-sugar. It is the best/healthiest form of sugar. Arguably, maybe raw honey is better. But if you need sugar, go with this stuff.

It is all I use now, for bread making to jam and everything in between. (And really raw honey) :)

Buy with confidence! Enjoy

5.0 out of 5 stars Love it!!!, May 23, 2007
We were turned on to this product by my husband's cousin and we just love it!!! It is a great substitute (1 to 1) for regular white sugar, although it does have a bit of a different taste...but nothing that is noticable in recipes. After using this for just a week or so we can hardly stand to eat things made with white sugar! Its amazing how fast that happens! I would say buy this!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars great sugar, July 9, 2010
By 
This review is from: Rapunzel Pure Organic Whole Cane Sugar, 24-Ounce Packages (Pack of 6) (Grocery)
I bought this sugar to use in my water kefir sodas and it makes my kefir grains so happy. They are going crazy!!! They are reproducing like crazy and bouncing all over the jar!!! They did not even get close to soda fizzy with other sugar but it is so fizzy I have to watch the fermenting time to be sure there are no explosions. Great stuff and great on cream of wheat and grits. Kids even like it.
