Sugar - Dark Muscovado (Mauritius) 1#

I wish it was not so expensive it makes the best syrup for your coffee!

I often experiment with new baking and cooking ingredients. Quite often an experimental new ingredient is disappointing. This Dark Muscovado Sugar is a WINNER. It is flavorful, in a unique way. When used judiciously it has an intriguing hint of earthy molasses. I tried it first in hot chocolate. It added to the flavor by contributing a rich, organic flavor. Next, I used it in ployes (Acadian pancakes). It added a delightful hint of the old world. I can't wait to use it in future cookies and cakes. I've been careful to add it in small amounts because the flavor is strong. Weaker (and less pure) versions would be dark brown, and then light brown, sugar. That said, those sugars add molasses back in. This sugar retains it's almost non-processed ingredients naturally. I've read that some shipments arrived rock-hard. Mine arrived moist and easily spooned out. Perfect! I really appreciate this natural, uniquely tasty, sugar that measures, mixes-in, and dissolves readily. I'm old, so I've tasted all the usual desserts a thousand times. I like them, but I’m seeking new twists on my old favorites. My next steps are cinnamon puffs, cinnamon buns, fried dough, cake frostings, pancakes, date cookies, sugar cookies, etc. If you're yearning for an intriguing new twist, give this a try. I recommend it.

Fabulous product, great taste but can be found for $8 at local fresh market

Christmas pudding sugar. Worth the price!

Terribly expensive, but honest. Best dark brown sugar you will ever have. Very intense flavor!
