Product Description
Turbinado's golden crunchy crystals, produced from 100% organically grown sugar cane, are perfect for gourmet coffee, tea, beverages and as a crunchy topping. Made by crushing the freshly-cut cane to squeeze out excess juice, Turbinado is rich in molasses, vitamins and minerals. Cane juice is simply thickened through the evaporation of excess moisture to form a heavy syrup. The syrup is crystallized in a centrifuge, or turbine, to produce the large sparkling golden crystals--hence the name, Turbinado. It is the ultimate topping for cakes, cookies, muffins, crumbles and pies and a wonderful start to the day sprinkled on cereal or fruit. Use as a 1-for-1 replacement for refined white sugar. Organic and kosher certified. Suitable for vegan, vegetarian, halal and plant-based diets. Turbinado is not colored or blended and no animal byproducts are used in its production. |

Great Taste, Great Price! by Deanna  5 Stars
July 30, 2009
Turbinado, not even organic, sugar runs over $4.00 per pound in our local store. Hubby won't use any sugar replacements and likes the taste of turbinado sugar, so it's the lesser of the evils, I guess.
This is truly a fabulous price, especially when using Subscribe and Save. This is enough for almost a year for us.

Great sugar and a great price by Dave (Portland) 5 Stars
June 22, 2009
If you're looking for a well priced raw organic sugar with a good flavor you won't do much better than buying this from Amazon. I really like the flavor of this sugar and while I like some of their Fair Trade sugars a little better (their non-organic Turbinado from Malawi is hard to beat) I've got little kids so I'm trying to stick with organic products when possible.
Someone in a previous review claimed this is bleached. They may be mistaking this for a "brown" sugar (which isn't bleached but it is refined into a white sugar [often using an acid] and then the molasses is added back in). As the name makes clear this is a raw Turbinado sugar. That means it is raw cane that is spun in a low speed centrifuge (i.e. "turbine") just enough to remove most of the cane plant detritus. While this version is raw you can find plenty of Turbinado sugar that has been baked or steamed.
You can use this sugar pretty much anywhere you've been using regular white sugar. If you've got a recipe that calls for bakers sugar then this will probably be too coarse. This won't melt as easily as white sugar: I find that around 375 degrees it caramelizes nicely but at 350 I still get crunchy bits of sugar. I kind of like the crunchy bits but if you don't turn the heat up a notch. If you are putting this in cereal it won't dissipate as easily as plain white sugar but this isn't something that ever bothered me. I like that is has a more interesting flavor than white sugar and that lets me use a little less of it. Anything that helps the waste line is a good thing in my book.
Incidentally if you are shopping around and see something called "Demerara" sugar it's just the English name for sugar made in pretty much the same way as Turbinado sugar (there are text book definitions of these things but most of the sugar makes aren't reading them so don't get too worked up about the name).

Wonderful natural cane sugar flavor by Once in a while 5 Stars
March 31, 2009
When I was a child an annual tradition in the Fall was to buy stalks of sugar cane at the local farmers' market. Our parents would strip the husk and slice the middle into bite-sized pieces for chewing. What a treat!
This sugar tastes like that fresh sugar cane juice. It's wonderful.
Yes, the crystals are large and don't dissolve as easily as refined white sugar. But hey, you are burning calories for the few extra stirs it takes, and the flavor is worth it!
And it's just nice to know that the nutrients are still in there and haven't been processed out.

Gosh Darn, This Stuff Is Good! by Rachel Barr (Fort Davis, TX USA) 5 Stars
November 09, 2008
The title says it all. Adds so-o-o-o much body and flavor to coffee, baking--anything that you'd could possibly need sugar for. Moreover, it's actually nutritious.
I cook for hunters at our deer camp every fall, and last year I took a half dozen pouches of turbinado raw sugar to use while I was there. The hunters were skeptical of the stuff at first, but they were game; they gave it a try. And just raved about how much better their coffee tasted! Even wrote down the name of the product so they could get some when they went home. Those guys were so funny in the mornings, lining up for their coffee and discussing the merits of this sugar as if it were going to revolutionize the universe.
It doesn't dissolve in cold liquids and takes a few seconds of stirring in hot ones. Smells kinda funny when you open the bag, too, but, boy oh boy! This stuff wakes up everything I've used it in. I've been using this sugar for going on two years--and it's been exactly that long since I bought refined sugar. Coincidence? I think not.
And with Amazon Prime, it ships for free. Fantastic product, great price.
Nuff said.

Great Taste and Great Price by Jeannie A. Allen (Alpharetta, GA, USA) 5 Stars

We love organic raw sugar at my house, but it's so expensive to buy the little boxes at the grocery store. Not only is this sugar better tasting, but buying bulk brings the price down to a manageable amount.
