*Coconut sugar.

I often add coconut sugar in my cakes. Sugar is sugar and coconut sugar does not make any exception; the caloric and corbohydrate content of coconut sugar is the same as other sugars but with a lower ranking on the glycemic index, a higher mineral content, and its environmentally friendly properties, can be considered a better option.

It ranks lower on the glycemic index; foods that rank higher can cause a spike in blood-sugar level, which means there can be a drastic increase in insulin levels.

It contain more vitamins and minerals than regular sugar (vitamin C, vitamin B8, potassium, magnesium, calcium, zinc, iron, copper, and phosphorus).

Lastly, coconut trees need very little water to thrive and they produce 50% more sugar per acre than sugar canes.
