Panela Fraccionada 908g Coexito
Product Overview Panela is an unrefined cane sugar made directly from 100 % sugarcane juice that has been boiled and reduced to a dense, solid form. Unlike highly refined white sugar, panela retains much of the natural molasses and many micronutrients from the cane, giving it a rich, caramel-like flavour and darker colour. It’s a traditional sweetener used across Latin America, especially in Colombia, for sweetening drinks, desserts, snacks and cooked dishes. Origin This panela comes from the Coexito brand, typically manufactured and packaged in Colombia — where panela (also called piloncillo, rapadura or chancaca in other countries) has deep cultural roots as a staple natural sweetener. Ingredients 100 % cane juice (jugo de caña de azúcar) — boiled and dehydrated into solid panela blocks without refining or additives. This traditional process preserves the natural cane components without chemical refining.
