Again,
the tree of life provides. As we learn more about
balance and harmony in our lives, we return to nature
for the answers to our needs. This time, it is the
toddy of the coconut tree that is harvested and
cooked until it forms fine brown granules or syrup,
tasting of a sweetness that brings to mind the fresh
white flesh of a young coconut. All natural, all
organic. As pure as the essence of life itself.
Coconut sugar and nectar are derived from the evaporating
coconut sap or sweet toddy through boiling in an
open container where it is then allowed to cool
and solidify. Coconut sap, if distilled, turns into
wine. If fermented, it turns into vinegar. If cooked,
it turns into sugar.
Benevita coconut products are 100% natural, free
from additives and artificial flavoring.
BENEVITA COCOSUGAR
What
is coconut sugar?
Coconut sugar is made by gathering the fresh toddy
sap of the coconut tree. The toddy is cooked until
it turns into fine brown granules.
Perfectly healthy choice because of its natural
sweetness and low glycemic index compared to cane
sugar.
Fine brown granules with a sweet nutty flavor from
organically grown coconut trees in the South. Best
for your coffee, tea or juice drink, as well as
food preparations and baking recipes. Contains higher
amount of nutrients compared to brown cane sugar.
It has some amounts of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium,
chlorine, magnesium, sulfur and micro nutrients.
BENEVITA COCONECTAR
What is coconectar?
Coconut nectar is a thick honey-like coconut syrup
that is also made from the fresh toddy of a coconut
tree. Like sugar it is cooked but only until it
becomes syrup. Perfect for baking and breakfast
meals.
Thick, dark, and oozing with healthy,
natural sweetness. Best for your pancakes, pastries
and other baking needs. Can also be put in your
tea like honey.
