Clearance Indonesian Palm Sugar – Gula Jawa, 500g Ingredients Brands|Southeast Asian Ingredients

Indonesian palm sugar, also called gula jawa, gula merah or red sugar is far stickier and darker than other types of palm sugar which are often a light brown colour.  

The moistness and richness of gula jawa means it gives recipes a richer molasses flavour, and a deep brown colour. When a recipe calls for gula jawa it’s certainly worth seeking it out, as the difference in flavour is quite distinct.

Please note that white marks may appear on the product – this is crystallised sugar caused by a temperature change during the production process and is completely safe to eat.
