What it is

Coconut sap sugar is a sweetener made from the sugary sap of the coconut palm flower. The sap is collected and then heated to evaporate most of the water, leaving behind crystallized sugar granules.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use coconut sap sugar as a natural sweetener, similar to other sugars. It is often found in products marketed as healthier alternatives, such as baked goods, granola bars, and some beverages, adding a mild caramel-like flavor.

Health notes

Coconut sap sugar is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a sweetener. Like other sugars, it provides calories and can impact blood sugar levels. JECFA (Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives) has evaluated coconut sap sugar, but did not set a numeric acceptable daily intake (ADI). Evidence on its specific health benefits compared to other sugars is mixed and requires further research.

Allergen info

Coconut sap sugar is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It is also gluten-free.
