To serve you better, I have moved Debra's List to a new server at
http://www.debralynndadd.com/debraslist/home
There is a lot of hand work I need to do there, so I am leaving this site up until all that work is done.
All new entries will go on the new site.
All the entries from this site are on the new site, but may not be formatted.
Thanks for your patience during this transition.
Debra :-)

Cane Sugar Unrefined
Rapunzel Rapadura Sugar
Organically grown, whole, unrefined cane sugar harvested from sustainable family farms in Bolivia and through the Hand in Hand™ fair trade program. It has a unique caramel flavor and fine grain texture. It is closest to the natural whole cane because the molasses is not separated out during the squeeze-dried processing.

Florida Crystals Organic Cane Sugar
"The juice is pressed from sun-ripened sugarcane, washed, filtered and crystallized-all right on the farm" on the day of harvest. This is evaporated cane juice with the molasses removed, so it tastes almost like white sugar, but is less processed. They also have conventionally-grown sugars that are naturally milled--their natural demarara sugar has a bit of molasses added. Click on "Our Products/Inside our Natural Mill" to see how their sugars are processed and on "Our Environment" to learn how the company utilizes sustainable agriculture and is part of a program to protect the Florida Everglades.

Santini Organic Sweetened Condensed Milk
Organic sweetened condensed milk. The ingredients say only that it is sweetened with "organic cane sugar", but on the phone they told me that it is unrefined evaporated cane juice.

Sugar In The Raw Premium Hawaiian Turbinado Sugar
"100% pure Hawaiian cane sugar from the initial pressing of the cane, allowing the natural molasses to remain in the crystals...Juice is extracted from the sugar cane, and then crystallized through evaporation. These crystals are rinsed with a very small amount of water to remove just enough stickiness to make the product free flowing...The flavor is sweet and rich. The color is natural amber...Some commercial brown sugars are made by adding coloring and flavor back to refined white sugar; this is not the case with Sugar In The Raw." I called the company to clarify the point about the molasses. Sugar in the Raw is never refined to the point of white sugar. The sugar is crystallized, and the crystals are removed from the molasses and rinsed. So the crystals still contain some, but not all of the molasses.
