How Granulated Coconut Sugar is processed

As generally process of coconut sugar, granulated coconut sugar is also a natural sweeteners made form the sap of coconut palm.

Granulated coconut sugar is produced through a process that involves extracting the sap from the flowers of coconut palm trees and then evaporating the moisture content to obtain a concentrated syrup. The steps involved in the production of granulated coconut sugar are as follows:

1. Tapping the coconut palm trees: The process begins by tapping the flower buds of coconut palm trees to collect the sap. This is done by making a small incision in the flower bud and attaching a container to collect the sap.

2. Collecting the sap: The sap, also known as coconut nectar, is collected in the containers attached to the flower buds. The sap is naturally sweet and contains various nutrients.

3. Filtering the sap: Once collected, the sap is filtered to remove any impurities or debris. This ensures that the final product is clean and pure.

4. Evaporating the sap: The filtered sap is then transferred to large shallow pans or kettles for evaporation. The sap is heated over low heat, allowing the moisture content to evaporate slowly. This process helps concentrate the sap and thicken it into a syrup-like consistency.

5. Stirring and monitoring: During the evaporation process, the sap needs to be stirred continuously to prevent it from burning or sticking to the pan. The temperature is also monitored to ensure that it does not exceed a certain level.

6. Cooling : Once the sap has reached the desired consistency, it is removed from the heat and allowed to cool. As it cools, the concentrated sap starts to forming granules and this will become Granulated coconut sugar
