Hand in Hand - Organic Rapunzel Fairtrade USDA Organic Unrefined & Unbleached Certified Organic by Quality Assurance International (QAI) The Rapunzel Difference Rapunzel Organic Sugar captures the sweet essence of sugar cane--organically. This deliciously pure unrefined sugar, prized for its unique caramel flavor and grainy texture, retains a beautiful golden color and offers unmatched nutritional value because - unlike other sugars - it is not separated from the molasses stream during squeeze-dried processing. Delivering pure flavor and superior baking results, it is the perfect substitute for white sugar and can be added to your favorite food, drinks and baking. Rapunzel's commitment to producing the highest quality organic foods and to preserving a more ecologically sustainable world dates back to 1974. We use only 100% certified organic commodities that are grown and purchased through the Hand in Hand Fair Trade Program which ensures that farmers in developing countries are paid based on a fair pricing structure independent from the world market. Rapunzel believes in giving back to the cooperatives that adhere to sustainable farming practices, and we work with small family farms throughout South America. That's why we contribute to education, health and environmental programs dedicated to improving the quality of life in local communities.
