Fair for Life
Fair trade whole cane sugar is a sweet way to support small rural farmers trying to work their way out of poverty. Ours is community-produced and has the internationally-recognised Fair for Life fair trade certification, awarded by IMO. Whole cane sugar is produced by washing and crushing whole sugar cane, then evaporating the resulting juice, and stirring or beating it until it granulates. That's it. It's a very simple, natural and tasty product, which can be used in hot drinks, in cooking, to sweeten fruit juices and for almost any other situation in which you would use refined sugar. Ours is certified organic as well as fair trade, and is the product of small family farms in the western foothills of the Ecuadorian Andes, using the same traditional methods as their grandparents did before them
