- Rapunzel - Organic Whole Cane Sugar - 24 oz. (680 g) Rapunzel Organic Whole Cane Sugar captures the sweet essence of sugar cane - organically. This deliciously pure unrefined sugar, prized for its unique caramel flavor and grainy texture, retains a beautiful golden color and offers unmatched nutritional value because - unlike other sugars - it is not separated from the molasses stream during squeeze-dried processing. Delivering pure flavor and superior baking results, it is the perfect substitute for white sugar and can be added to your favorite food, drinks and baking. Naturally Sweet Rapunzel sweeteners such as maple syrup, Rapadura whole cane sugar and Cristallino raw cane sugar from ecological farms are ideal for those who want to sweeten naturally and nutritiously. Rapadura whole cane sugar and Cristallino raw cane sugar are fair trade products sourced from Rapunzel's Hand in Hand partners Planeta Verde in Brazil and As-sukar in Costa Rica.
