Coconut Blossom Nectar – Alternatives to Sugar

TIANA Fairtrade Organics Raw Crystallised Coconut Blossom Nectar is far superior to coconut sugar

Both, coconut sugar and TIANA Crystallised Coconut Blossom Nectar are produced from coconut flower sap (nectar).

The freshly collected coconut sap (nectar) is sweet and neutral in pH (equal 6) and a Brix of 17. It contains 14-19% sugar (sucrose and small amount of glucose), and it is rich in amino acids, specifically glutamic acid and vitamins. The coconut nectar is rich in inositol that is classified as a member of the vitamin B-complex and required for the proper formation of cell membranes. 

Alternatives to Sugar

The difference between TIANA Crystallised Coconut Blossom Nectar and coconut sugar is that TIANA Crystallised Coconut Blossom Nectar is produced at low temperatures below 50°C from sap (nectar) to provide high nutrition contents therefore is a raw unrefined sugar alternative whereas coconut sugar is made from the coconut flower sap (nectar) at temperatures above 100°C when all-important nutrients available in raw sap are being destroyed by boiling.

How is TIANA Organic Crystallised Coconut Blossom Nectar made?

The highly nutritional and freshly collected coconut sap (nectar) immediately starts alcoholic fermentation and becomes completely fermented within a day. To avoid fermentation to produce TIANA crystallised coconut nectar, sap is collected every 4 hours. Following collection, it immediately undergoes the process of crystallisation to achieve slightly golden coloured crystals, resulting in TIANA organic raw crystallised coconut blossom nectar, which is 100% raw and full of important nutrients. This is what makes our TIANA Crystallised Coconut Blossom Nectar different and far more beneficial than coconut sugar.

If comparing TIANA Crystallised Coconut Blossom Nectar in colour with coconut sugar, coconut sugar has a dark colour because the crystallisation happens at temperatures above 100°C and the sugar will become caramelised, resulting in a dark colour.  In some countries that produce coconut sugar, it can also be mixed with organic muscovado sugar, palm sugar or other malt varieties.

TIANA Fairtrade Organics Raw Crystallised Coconut Nectar is a unique sugar alternative. Absolutely delicious and full of important nutrients, TIANA Crystallised Coconut Blossom Nectar is the most sustainable sugar alternative on the market.
