Production
The raw cane sugar is grown by biodynamic farmers in Paraguay. The climatic conditions in South and Central America are ideal for the cultivation of sugar cane. After harvesting, the sugar cane is stripped of leaves, chopped, crushed several times between simple rollers and the juice extracted. The plant fibre is filtered off. After cleaning, the juice is merely thickened in a vacuum at low temperature. A few unrefined sugar crystals are added to the heavily concentrated juice, so that the sugar crystallises out. When the sugar crystals attain a certain size, they are centrifuged from the rest of the concentrated juice, dried, sieved and packaged. The molasses content is therefore lower than in SUCANAT whole cane sugar. The smaller crystals and paler colour in comparison with DEMERARA are due to longer processing. Raw cane sugar is ground finely to make icing sugar.
Tips for preparation
Icing sugar is ideal for sprinkling on desserts, cakes and biscuits, for icing and sponge cake bases.
