Organic Brown Coconut Sugar - Coconut Palm Sugar, Unrefined, Fine Crystals, Cane Sugar Replacement, Coconut Blossom Nectar, Vegan, Perfect for Baking - 2 Pound (Pack of 2)

My sister told me about this sugar when I was trying to find a healthier sugar to use for my coffee. I have been using this brand for 9 years! I have tried other brands and none of them are like this brand. It's the right price, it tastes good and it doesn't run my sugar level up.

I was looking for a natural low glycemic sugar substitute. Coconut palm sugar is granulated and has nutritional benefits as well as having a low glycemic index though it has calories but at least constructive ones. After reading the reviews I understood that there would be a slight caramel taste, not just like white sugar. I could live with that since I like coffee with flavored creamer and thought half and half would do instead (thanks to twinmom's review). Since I have been drinking carbonated soda most of my life and it's a tough habit to break, I bought a SodaStream water carbonater and expected to be able to use natural flavoring with the carbonated water. The SodaStream syrups were not what I had hoped for (taste and content). I got the books "The Artesian Workshop" and "Homemade Soda" and have been enjoying and experimenting. I found a recipe for cream soda syrup (in Artesian Workshop) and vanilla syrup (in Homemade Soda) and discovered that the coconut palm sugar with vanilla just fit the bill (I didn't have to find/buy vanilla beans they are already in the sugar). I can now have a cream soda drink that doesn't have all sorts of chemicals. 1 cup water, 1 1/4 cups coconut palm sugar with vanilla. Bring to boil disolving all sugar, let simmer stirring to knock down foam and make into a syrup about 5 min. Let cool and pour into a container that can be refidgerated. This makes about a cup of syrup. Now it can be added to carbonated water to taste. I use a 1 to 7 ratio and add ice. Natural cream soda with minimal guilt. I haven't used this vanilla sugar in coffee yet because I keep making the syrup with it. I really enjoy the taste and expect to continue using the palm sugar with and without vanilla in many other recipes.

This stuff tastes SO GOOD in my coffee. I use this to replace sweet coffee creamer. So good!

Husband loves this, I think it’s overpriced. Uses it in his coffee.

Coconut sugar is not sweet, but does cut the bitter of my morning coffee with out affecting my blood sugar. It doesn't have a strong flavor and it's a little odd tasting at first. BUT it's a good alternative to sugar.

Me encanta en verdad muy saludable

I love this company! I love this product! This coconut sugar is so yummy. It's the perfect alternative to sugar! It has a great texture, smell and it's good value for the money! I use it in my coffee, tea, recipes, to make whip cream and everything you'd use sugar in! This company offers this product in vanilla too! Yummmm

My family has a history of hypoglycemia, and at one point, I became so sensitive to sugar that I would start to have vertigo or become nauseous if I ate a single cookie or candy bar. That was many years back, prior to diagnosis, when I was a distance runner, primarily consuming a high-carb, low-fat diet. I now follow a paleo diet and rarely eat any type of sugar or grain. It is nice to make things for my boys, and I like to make the occasional muffin or bread (banana bread, in particular). I tried several packages of several different brands, and all of them cause a slight uptick in my blood sugar levels, but it's nothing like the huge spike that I get from regular sugar. This matches well with the low reported glycemic index numbers (I've seen everything from 18-35, but all are low enough to be useful for me). I prefer the blonde variety as it has more of a brown sugar flavor, and it acts like brown sugar (it's hygroscopic-absorbs water to keep things moist), while the standard varieties have more of a sorghum or molasses flavor. This is also available as coconut nectar from another company, and while this is useful for candy-making, it is difficult to ship in anything larger than a small bottle. Coconut Aminos are also available as a source of trace minerals and amino acids. They make a great alternative to soy or tamari, and it has significantly higher amounts of trace minerals and similar levels of aminos as Bragg's Aminos, which are not wheat- and gluten-free.

I paid a few hundred dollars but only 1 packet arrived. This is rubbish!

Low sugar glycemic index. Fantastic flavour and use far less than sugar and does not compromise taste.

Healthy alternative to traditional sugar

Was great will be using in my coffee. Healthy for you as well.

Low glycemic index Mild flavour Better than brown sugar but not strong flavour
