Independent Inspector’s Report – Hacendado Panela

Hacendado’s Panela is a delightful unrefined cane sugar that impressed me with its authenticity.
Made from 100% pure cane juice, it retains its natural molasses content for a rich, caramel-like taste.
During testing, I noted its fine, moist texture that dissolves smoothly in both hot and cold liquids.
The natural amber colour and sweet aroma add a rustic charm to any kitchen.
It’s a versatile sweetener, perfect for baking, beverages or adding depth to sauces.
I appreciated its natural origin and the fact that it’s minimally processed, preserving key nutrients.
The Panela’s warm, earthy notes bring a traditional Latin American touch to modern cooking.
A genuine, high-quality product that balances natural sweetness with rich, complex flavour.

Health aspect:
Panela is less processed and contains more minerals (like iron, calcium, potassium) and
antioxidants compared to refined cane sugar. However, both are added sugars and
should be consumed in moderation.
