What it is
Raw cane sugar is an unrefined sugar with a golden colour and a lightly caramelised taste. The Aarberg Fairtrade format is supplied in 1 kg bags for beverage, bakery and dessert preparation.
Producer and format
The product is marketed under the Aarberg brand of Schweizer Zucker AG. Each bag is 1 kg and the case contains 10 pieces, for 10 kg total; the format carries Fairtrade and FSC Mix specifications.
Organoleptic profile
The crystals have a warm golden appearance and a gentle caramel note rather than the neutral profile of refined white sugar. The flavour adds a small aromatic dimension to recipes and drinks.
Professional uses and quantities
Dose according to the recipe, beverage or dessert. Use it in coffee and other drinks, cakes, creams, pastry preparations and desserts where a light caramel character is appropriate.
Errors to avoid
Keep the sugar away from moisture, wet utensils and uncovered steam. Do not leave the bag open, because humidity can cause clumping and make accurate dosing more difficult.
Storage and handling
Store the 1 kg bags in a dry place at room temperature and close the packaging after use. Follow the pack information for handling; dry sugar is suitable for organised pantry storage.
