SUGAR IN THE RAW®

Sugar In The Raw® is a Turbinado sugar made exclusively from sugarcane. Juice is extracted from the sugarcane and then crystallized through evaporation to maintain its natural molasses, golden color and distinctive flavor. The resulting crystals are rinsed with a very small amount of water to remove just enough stickiness to make the product free-flowing. We pack this Turbinado sugar and market it under the Sugar In The Raw® brand name.

Sugar In The Raw® is a premium tropical Turbinado sugar made from all natural cane. Worldwide, there are few growing and manufacturing facilities devoted to producing high quality Turbinado sugar, so the supply is much more limited than white sugar. As a result, Sugar In The Raw® costs more than white sugar.

Like table sugar, Sugar In The Raw® has an unlimited shelf life when stored under cool and dry conditions. Exposure to high humidity and/or temperatures may result in caking, but the product is still safe to consume.

Because of its sugar cane juice flavor, Sugar In The Raw® may become hard and caked if stored under humid conditions. Avoid exposure and storage in humid environment. Sometimes it is possible to loosen the lumps by placing the Sugar In The Raw® in a tray and putting it into a low heat oven (up to 160F) for 15 minutes to a half hour. Please use caution not to overheat or burn the product.

Sugar In The Raw®’s distinctive color and taste comes from the sugarcane molasses flavor that occurs in the crystals. By contrast, white sugar is obtained by refining the sugarcane crystals to remove the molasses (and with that, trace nutrients). Some nutritionists believe that the small amount of micronutrients retained in Sugar In The Raw® provides advantages over refined white sugar. In contrast, some commercial brown sugars are made by adding coloring and flavor back to refined white sugar; this is not the case with Sugar In The Raw®.
