Organic Rapadura sugar

What is Rapadura Bio?

Rapadura organic sugar is a type of brown cane sugar rich in molasses (because it is unrefined). It is also known as non-centrifuged unrefined sugar because it is not centrifuged to remove its molasses - as is the case with white sugar.

Produced by crushing sugar cane stalks to extract the juice, the sugar is then evaporated in open kettles, increasing its sugar concentration and viscosity.

The sugarcane syrup is then poured into molds and cooled to give it its characteristic solid block shape, for easier handling and storage.

In addition to its exceptional taste, organic rapadura sugar has many health benefits. It contains many minerals and trace elements, such as iron, zinc and potassium, which can be lost when white sugar is refined. Rapadura is also a source of dietary fiber, which can help regulate blood sugar levels and prevent blood sugar spikes.

Combined with the chai blend, you get a mixture ready to be added to milk, a real delight.

Rapadura is known by different names in different countries, rapadura being the Brazilian name for this sugar.

Other common names include kokuto in Japan, jaggery in the Philippines, gur in India, panela in Colombia, piloncillo in Mexico, chancaca in Honduras and tapa de dulce in Costa Rica.
