Palm Sugar also known as Palm Jaggery Powder is used as a natural sweetener. It comes from Palm Tree. Palm sugar contains vitamins and trace minerals and is less sweet than cane sugar. It is known as natural sugar because it involves minimum processing and no chemicals are used. The sap from the tree is heated to wick away the moisture content until a thick syrup is obtained, and this sweet nectar is then further reduced to crystals. In the stores, palm sugar is available in block, granular, and liquid form.
