Terrasoul Superfoods Organic Coconut Sugar, 2 Lbs - Low Glycemic | Unrefined | Trace Minerals

Delicious

I’m re-ordering because I love this stuff. I read many reviews before the initial purchase. I have nothing negative to say about this brand—it’s a smoothly ground palm sugar. I’ve tried many sugar alternatives over the years. I have tried so hard to stick with the natural zero-calorie options such as stevia or monk fruit, but they taste too different, and are difficult to use in recipes. This coconut sugar tastes amazing in my coffee (I normally use brown sugar, so this tastes almost the same). And it’s easy to use in recipes! I made chocolate chip cookies and used this instead of brown sugar, and they turned out great! I know it still has calories and sugars, but it is at least an improvement that I can stick with. It’s really close to a 1:1 sugar substitute, but not quite as sweet as white or brown sugar. However, for most of us buying this, we’re trying to cut back on being so addicted super sweet tasting things anyway, so this is a good step towards that goal. You can always add a little more if you want.

This seems like a good palm sugar to me. I do not have a lot of exposure to different palm sugars, to be able to compare this one with others. It is composed of fine granules (as are the other palm sugars I have tried). When I opened the package, the aroma was nearly overwhelming--very strong, I think perhaps stronger than some others? Not a true scientific experiment, I will admit. It does have a flavor reminiscent of other palm sugars, a brown sugar flavor (almost)--slightly different, not in a bad way, just different. Anyway, it mixes fine with the herbal tea I make in the refrigerator with loose herbal teas or herbal tea bags. The flavor, once sort of dissolved (particles swirling at the bottom of the pitcher) blended fine with peach herbal tea, and will be combined with other herbal teas in the near future! Does anybody have any information on the chemical structure? (Is it approved in the FODMAP diet?) Does it have Galactans in it? Fructose? Which forms of sugar? Long molecules or short ones? Polysaccharides? Can anyone tell me where I can find answers such as these? Thank you!

Great for baking and the value for the money is great. Not a strong flavor of coconut.

I love the flavor, great for substituting sugar in desserts
