Pale \x26 anaemic

Don’t know if it is just this batch as it’s been a long while since I last bought this brand, but the taste is awful. No deep mellow or caramel notes which are characteristic of rapadura.

Hard as Rock

I have been buying rapadura sugar for years...until recently it has always been fine, but now I have had two bags which were hard. The last one, I had to bang it on the corner of the work-top as it was one solid lump. I then opened the pack but couldn't get any out of the bag so I stabbed it with a knife and then with a pestle and mortar, ground each individual lump. It took hours. Most disappointed. I was working to a deadline and because of this delay we had dinner really late

Not Very Sweet

Bought this with high expectations but somehow it does not have that strong sweetness/flavour that you associate with unprocessed sugar. Bonraw is what I usually use and I will be going back to that.

Delicious but very overpriced

This sugar is delicious, with a delicate caramel flavour and colour. We use it as a substitute for any type of brown sugar and highly recommend it. However it is ridiculously overpriced and so Ive docked two stars. Sounds harsh? Similar organic whole, fair-trade sugar brands are half the price, although sadly they are not available on Ocado currently. Im happy to pay extra to do good for the planet and my family but I would not buy this sugar at full price.

Strong smell and taste

This was ok while I was only putting a couple of teaspoons in a bread mix but it ruined the cake I tried to make. It smelt unpleasant in the dry mix and completely overpowered the taste of the cake - which I then could not eat.

Organic and tasty

I like this sugar. The taste is rich and aromatic. Only point that I dissatisfied is the price : it is expensive though.
