A Subtle Sweetness
Coconut blossom sugar is characterized by its natural, slightly caramelized sweetness, with subtle notes of vanilla and nuts. Its delicate and pleasant aroma offers a depth of flavor that enhances dishes and desserts without being overpowering. Its granular texture melts well in preparations, providing an even sweetness.
The Botany of Coconut Blossom Sugar
Coconut blossom sugar is made from the sap of coconut tree flowers, traditionally harvested by cutting the flowers and collecting their sap. This sap is then heated to evaporate the water, leaving behind a raw, natural sugar. The production method is very similar to that of palm sugar from Cambodia. Harvesters climb the trees, cut the flowers, and collect their sap in bamboo containers. The sap is then boiled down, and once the water evaporates and the molasses dries, the remaining sugar is manually ground using a round stone. Indonesia, particularly central Java, is known as a major producer of this golden sugar.
