I was sent a bag of Zulka Morena Pure Cane Sugar recently to try out in the kitchen that is Non-GMO Project Verified. “Morena” sugar just means that it does not undergo conventional refining processes, which often remove the complexity and flavor of raw sugar after pressing. It is a new all-natural and unrefined granulated sugar that is made by squeezing and evaporating the juice from freshly harvested sugar cane from small family farms in Mexico.
Zulka practices efficient and sustainable production of food. All water in their irrigation system is re-circulated and plant waste from after removing the can sugar is returned to the fields to help improve the soil. Electricity for Zulka is exclusively made from leftover fiber from cane processing that powers their mill plus gives power back to the electricity grid.Zulka sugar is great for cooking, baking, beverages as well as everyday uses, like coffee or tea. It can be used in the same ratio as other white sugar so it’s an easy replacement. Here is a creamy and tasty fall recipe from Zulka for the Pumpkin Spice Latte. Please feel free to check out the Zulka website for more all-natural sugar recipes. Zulka does make powdered sugar and brown sugar too.

Disclosure: I received a 4 lb. bag of Zulka sugar in exchange for this post. No other compensation was received.
