Demerara is a raw cane sugar often used in home baking and in sweetening coffee and tea. Its crystals are coarse and brown, with a rich molasses flavor. Also known as Turbinado sugar. Demerara sugar has nutritional properties similar to those of organic evaporated cane juice: less processed than refined sugar, with more nutrients. Unlike some brown sugars, Demerara is not made by adding molasses to processed sugar; rather, it comes straight from sugar cane juice. The juice is spun in a turbine, causing the water to evaporate and the sugar to crystallize into coarse Demerara. Demerara sugar gets its name from the region in Guyana where it was first made. Many Americans call it Turbinado sugar, after the turbines in which it is dehydrated. Use Demerara as a substitute for refined sugar in some recipes, as a topping for baked goods and oatmeal, and as a sweetener. As with all Organic Merchants Co. products, there is no middleman. No importer, no co-packer, no distributor, no retailer. Often times this direct to consumer value is overlooked but it means a lot more than just price and you will realize this when you order our natural demerara sugar. 1) Importers, Co-Packers, Distributors, and Retailers all add their own markup to any products meaning you are paying much more than you should be for healthy items you want to purchase and use. 2) The more people that handle a product, the more likely it is that it is being mis-handled or handled by too many people to effectively guarantee the quality, purity, safety, etc. Our Company prides itself on sourcing our ingredients directly from the mill or farm, packaging them in house, then only selling them through Amazon or our online store. This ensures that there is supreme quality and freshness and great direct to consumer value.
