Panela – Large Round Sugar Cane 500g

Panela – Large Round Sugar Cane 500 g

Discover the rich, unrefined sweetness of panela  also known as rapadura – a time-honoured sugar cane product from Latin America made by boiling and evaporating sugar-cane juice into solid rounds.
Each 500 g block delivers natural caramel and toffee-like tones thanks to the retained molasses, making it a flavourful substitute for refined sugar in drinks, baking, desserts and traditional recipes. 

Highlights:

• 100% whole cane sugar, unrefined and in large round block form — “panela”.

• Deep flavour profile: sweet with hints of caramel, honey and liquorice. 

• 500 g size — ideal for home use, baking, traditional Latin-American drinks or stocking your pantry.

• Versatile: melt into hot chocolate, coffee or water; grate or shave into sauces and baked goods; use as a cultural and flavour-rich alternative to refined sugar.

• Retains natural minerals and flavour compounds since it’s minimal-processed. 

How to Use:
Break or grate a piece of the panela block, then dissolve in warm liquid or melt gently if needed. Use in recipes just like you would with brown sugar but expect a deeper and more complex sweetness.
