Review by Jennifer Levitan

Finding a vegan sugar source can be challenging. Most sugars on the market today are processed through bone char. Who wants to eat that sugar! Thankfully, there is a new, delicious, and beneficial sugar. Navitas Naturals has just introduced their new, organic palm sugar that is not only vegan and tasty, but low-glycemic and high in nutrients. How many sugars can boast that! It is called coconut power because it comes from the blossoms of the coconut tree.

Coconut power is an organic evaporated palm sugar. It comes from coconut palm sugar blossoms which grow hig atop a coconut tree. The blossoms are cut, and then kettle boiled into a thick caramel. It is then ground into sugar. It is low-glycemic and high in amino acids, Potassium, Magnesium, Zinc and Iron and is a good natural source of the vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6 and C.

This new sugar dissolved completely in my morning coffee and tasted delicious! I felt great knowing my coffee was now loaded with nutrients it didn't have before. I also used it in baked goods and it works wonderfully. Who wouldn't want a little nutritional boost in their cookie? Yum! Try some Coconut Power in your kitchen today!
