About Our Ingredients Health Garden’s coconut sugar will sweep you off your feet with its delicate sweetness, rich caramel flavor, and deep golden color. Derived from the sap of coconut palm trees, coconut sugar is high in amino acids, nutrients, and antioxidants, providing you with many health benefits when compared to regular brown sugar. Coconut sugar also contains impressive amounts of zinc, iron, potassium, and magnesium, as well as dietary fibers like inulin. Inulin supports digestive health and contributes to balancing blood sugar levels. Our Process Health Garden’s coconut sugar is derived from the sap of the coconut trees grown in the Philippines– higher quality than the coconut sugar harvested in Indonesia. Farmers hand cut the coconut palm; then harvest the sap from the cuts. This is then boiled and dehydrated on woks until it crystallizes. Our BRC certified factory then takes the product and does the following: sorting, grading, oven-drying, and sieving. Sporting a light golden color, our coconut sugar won’t harden and doesn’t leave an aftertaste.
