Amanprana Gula Java Fin, Organic Powdered Sugar 360g

Gula Java Fin, the 1st Powdered Coconut Blossom Sugar

Gula Java Fin is unrefined. When the rough Gula Java Brut sugar grains are ground, they become lightly colored and turn into a fine powder sugar. The result: Amanprana's Gula Java Fin.

Unlike Gula Java Brut, which consists of rather rough sugar grains, Gula Java Fin is a powdered sugar with a very light texture, making it an excellent sweetener for homemade chocolate, chocolate sauce or energy bites. Gula Java Fin, or coconut blossom powdered sugar, is a perfect addition to pastries, cakes and other desserts.

What is Gula Java?

Gula Java is the coconut blossom sugar from Java. The sweet nectar from the coconut blossom is a cherished resource, harvested by tappers high in the coconut trees. In a kettle above a log fire, the nectar slowly transforms into a delicious, unrefined rich sugar. Enjoyable ever moment of the day with a soft and sweet caramel flavour.

Gula Java can be used as a substitute for cane or beet sugar, agave or maple syrup. Perfect for in tea or coffee, delicious on oven-warmed apples, baked bananas, pancakes, pies, waffles, pastries, cakes and other baked goods. Also perfect for cocktails (e.g. Mojito, Caipirinha, etc.) If you fancy, it can be used as the decorative sugar rim for your cocktail glass. 

Ideal to finish off dishes or to add to authenticity to Asian recipes. Can also be used as a snack for some extra energy. 

It is recognised as the most sustainable form of sugar by the Food and Argiculture Organization (FAO).
