Khandsari Sugar

Description

About Khandsari Sugar

Khandsari sugar is a traditional, unrefined cane sugar that has been produced in India for centuries. Unlike white sugar, khandsari undergoes minimal processing — the sugarcane juice is simply evaporated and crystallised without chemicals, bleaching, or refining. This preserves the natural minerals and trace nutrients that are stripped away during the production of white sugar.

Key Benefits

• Unrefined and chemical-free — no bleaching agents or synthetic chemicals used
• Retains natural minerals — contains trace amounts of iron, calcium, and potassium
• Lower processing — closer to natural sugarcane than white sugar
• Traditional Indian sweetener — used for generations in Indian households
• Mild, natural sweetness with a light caramel note
