Biosagesse 500g natural coconut blossom sugar is made from the sap of coconut palm flowers(Cocos nucifera), using a traditional process.
Harvesting the sap from the blossoms is a time-honored tradition, requiring special know-how and great physical agility. A man has to climb the coconut tree and swing it until the top is tilted downwards: after a very fine incision, the coconut blossoms will release their nectar.
Several incisions, twice a day, will allow a continuous flow, enabling different products to be made. After fermentation, vinegar is made, after distillation, alcohol, and after cooking, coconut sugar.
Coconut blossom sugar is made up of 85% sucrose, 4% fructose and 4% glucose. As fructose is sometimes poorly tolerated, it is virtually absent from this sugar.
Compared with cane sugar, this coconut sugar is aimed at both gourmands and health-conscious consumers.
Studies have shown that this sugar has a low glycemic index (24.5 on the European scale / 35 on the American scale) compared with other sugars: cane sugar 60-70, agave syrup 40. For the record, the glycemic index is a system for assessing the effect of carbohydrates on blood glucose within two hours of ingestion.
Foods with a low glycemic index are good for controlling diabetes or obesity, and for various reasons are generally considered healthier than those with a high glycemic index.
