Whole sugar cane BIO

Whole sugar cane is a type of unrefined sugar that is made by crushing and pressing the juice out of sugar cane stalks. The juice is then heated to evaporate the water and create a thick syrup, which is then crystallized to produce whole sugar cane. Unlike refined sugar, which has the molasses removed during processing, whole sugar cane retains its natural molasses and minerals, such as calcium, iron, and potassium. It has a light brown color and a slightly coarser texture than white sugar. Whole sugar cane can be used in a variety of recipes as a substitute for white sugar, but it has a slightly different flavor profile with a hint of caramel or toffee. It is often marketed as a more natural and healthier alternative to refined sugar, and is also sometimes referred to as "panela" or "jaggery."
