Wholesome Sweeteners 16-Ounce Organic Coconut Sugar, Non GMO, Gluten Free & Vegan Sweetener, for Baking, Sauces, and Smoothies, 1 Pack

Taste great

I love the coconut sugar that I bought is better than the regular cane sugar. I will order it again as soon as I need another one.

I had never tried coconut sugar before trying this so I have nothing to compare it to, but I'll have to say that I'll never eat white processed sugar again as long as I live knowing that coconut sugar exists now! It tastes slightly like brown sugar but has a taste all it's own, really. It's quite hard to describe. It's like a light, LIGHT brown sugar, not as "wet" as brown sugar, though, but definitely not free-flowing like white sugar is. It has worked well in any way that you would normally use white sugar (in coffee, cakes, pies, and strawberries sliced and sprinkled with it have been my favorite ways of enjoying it's deliciousness so far) and has about the same sweetness, so you don't have to worry about trying to convert anything. Would recommend for anyone who is trying to go all-organic and ditch the unhealthy white sugar! Help support my family by donating to our Fundly account!

I use this sugar and yes I’m type 1 Diabetic (Controlled ). This was recommended for me, by my endocrinologist and has changed my life. I love the taste and the product. Be sure to read and it’s on Amazon. I’m thrilled I can order. So easy and sweet!!! It’s fantastic and especially for me!!! Ask and inquire!!!! Maybe you will love it too. It’s natural organic coconut sugar. It has the best taste. No artificial taste cause it’s real.

I had never had this before and I love coconut, plus I'm a big workout person who, like many, are always interested in the latest "Dr. Recommended" natural, health food, so i gave this a try. So fat I've only had it in coffee and tea; love how it tastes in coffee, tea? ehhh ... sort of a weird aftertaste. I would buy it again, but not as a full on sugar (or even artificial sweetener if you're against those) replacement mostly due to price. It's about 5 times more expensive than regular sugar (if you include the $5 shipping charge) around 10x the price, which alone makes it not a very viable replacement, considering all things aside (the low GI claim, nutrients, etc.), calorie-wise its right on par with sugar itself. Which raises the topic of the health benefit claims: if you're reading this and not already aware, the "health benefits" of this, as far as I understand, is based on a study of ten (10) people ... there is also some discussion about how sustainable it really is to produce coconut palm sugar. Here's a very interesting article written by a person who definitely has first-hand knowledge of the situation at hand, well worth the read: [...] He discusses how you can't produce both coconut sugar AND coconut oil from the same tree, it's one or the other, so if you're also on the coconut oil band wagon that's hot right now, things could get rough down the road. The last issue I have, albeit very minor, is I think it could be slightly more ..."filtered(?)" during production. You can see all kings of fibers and what not floating around in your beverage and at the bottom when used. It would be nice if it wasn't there, although I can see how nature purists would feel like this shows how little production goes into it, making it even more "natural". I personally given a choice, would rather it be more 'real' sugar-like where you only get the grains of sugar themselves. All in all however, I like the taste of it enough in it's own right, in my coffee, that I would buy again, although at the current prices of it, it would be more of a novelty than a sugar that I keep always on-hand.

Love this sugar. Adds a hint of brown sugar taste. Not super sweet. Settles well and does not add to my sugar level. I use it in replace of all white processed sugar.

AMAZON FRESH AND AMAZON GROCERY HAS MADE MY LIFE SO MUCH BETTER AND HAVE SAVED ME MONEY. YOU CAN ALSO CHOSE ITEMS FROM WINN DIXIE AND WHOLE FOODS.

I am still in a learning curve on this one. I had no idea what to expect when I ordered it - I only had read about this sugar having a lower glycemic impact than other sugars. The sugar itself is brown, and looks like a dark brown sugar. The taste is going to be one that you either love or hate... to me, it tastes a little like burnt brown sugar - like you have added a little butter but the sugar itself tried to burn. Now, I have to say that I like that flavor... I actually am one of the weirdos who likes the burned parts of foods - the crispy burnt edges of a meatloaf, the charred parts of a hot dog, etc etc. I have only tried to make one recipe with this so far - peanut butter cookies. I substituted coconut sugar for the brown sugar. The cookies came out much darker, and hard! Because this sugar is so dark, it changes the appearance of your food as it cooks. If you normally use your eye to know when your cookies are done, you won't be able to with this sugar. You have to use your timer and trust it. Then the cookies themselves were very hard and much drier, despite my using the same recipe I've used for years - the only change was the coconut sugar. So, I would advise that if you are going to use this for cookies, add a little fat and moisture from something else - either a couple extra tablespoons of butter or maybe 1/8 to 1/4 cup of applesauce to help keep your cookies from becoming dry bricks. Ironically, this sugar created an opposite reaction as the cookies got older. Normally, we don't have a problem with cookies getting old at our house! But no one really liked these. I did not throw them away, because I didn't mind them if I broke off a piece and let it sit in my mouth! Ha! (Like I said, I liked the burnt flavor aspect.) But here is what is weird - the longer the cookies sat, the SOFTER they got, the complete opposite of normal cookies! So, you could definitely try this. I wanted to for the lower glycemic index on this sugar. But, it is going to take some tweaking and adjusting to be able to use it for cooking.

Sweet as sugar wsith a bit of different taste and a brown-ish colour
