Mascavo sugar is brown or golden in color, being the rawest form of the product. The color is due to the fact that it has not gone through the refining process, which preserves vitamins and minerals. Although its flavor is stronger because it preserves the cane molasses, brown sugar can be used in the same way as refined sugar.
Because it still has some of the minerals and vitamins of sugar cane and has not gone through refining, which adds chemical additives to sugar, Mascavo is healthier, being the most recommended for people looking for a healthier diet!
