Sucanat is an organic, unrefined cane sugar that has not had its molasses removed, unlike refined white sugar. Light brown in color, Sucanat has a grainy texture and has a taste similar to brown sugar.
In the case of Sucanatâ¢, however, the sugar cane juice is simply heated and then allowed to cool, forming granular crystals of what is basically dried sugar cane juice. The Sucanatâ¢ retains the molasses, creating a very distinctive and quite strong flavor, along with other impurities which may be present in the cane.
