Organic Jaggery Powder: The Healthy Alternative to Sugar
Jaggery is a traditional sweetener made by evaporating raw sugarcane juice without separating the molasses from the crystals. It is known as "panela" in South America & Mexico, "gur" in India, and is softer than refined sugar, varying in color from yellow to dark brown. Where refined sugar loses much of its nutritional content during production, jaggery contains trace minerals and vitamins, making it a truly healthier alternative sweetener.
Benefits of organic jaggery powder over refined sugar:
Organic jaggery powder contains trace minerals not found in sugar, such as potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, and calcium.
Organic jaggery powder has a richer taste as compared to refined sugar.
Organic jaggery powder is potent, a little goes a long way. Even a small piece of jaggery is deeply satisfying.
Differences between organic jaggery powder and refined sugar:
Refined sugar is processed using chemicals to clarify the cane sugar juice syrup, whereas organic jaggery powder is produced by simply boiling this syrup without the use of harsh chemicals.
Refined sugar is solid and crystalline, whereas organic jaggery powder is soft.
Our certified organic jaggery powder is extracted from cane plants that are grown without chemical fertilizers or pesticides. It is also produced without the harsh chemicals used to clarify cane sugar. Organic jaggery powder is free of the lead contamination that is sometimes found in imported jaggery.

Masala Chai - I make 2 quarts of Masala Chai concentrate every week. Jaggery is my go to sweetener because it add a warm, caramel dimension to the Chai. Thank you Pure Indian Foods for offering jaggery with no sulfites.

Love this jaggery! Adds a depth to every dish requiring brown sugar, that brown sugar does not match. Received my order quickly too!! Highly recommend!!!
It tastes different from whole jaggery. It does alter the taste of dishes when you replace sugar with it. I specifically mix it with ghee and rice for my sweet tooth post-meals.
This is perfect for my needs. I no longer drink chai but crave the feeling of a warm chai like drink and adding this jaggery powder to cardamom milk makes it look like chai :) and its yum
I ve been a huge fan of PIF since watching a presentation re making a curry meal at a Wise Traditons conf about 5 yrs ago. since then, I ve ordered numerous items on a irregularly regular basis from their website and have been totally satisfied w them all.
you know all their products are made w the care and and integrity that only a family- owned business can produce.
I m looking forward to visiting the PIF exhibit at the upcoming Wise Traditions conf in Kansas City.

This is jaggery in a kind of large granular form. I used it to make molasses ginger cookies- when I do this next time, I'll use a rolling pin to make it finer but it is fine as it is too once you learn how to handle it. Imparts a very rich brownish sugar flavor to the cookies- a winner I'd say. I am a jaggery convert!
Delicate sweetness with wonderful complex flavor; used it to make morning glory muffins instead of brown sugar (also added some of the Hunza raisins) and they came out delicious; the powder form is very convenient
Love this jaggery as sugar substitute
Tried it many times...love the authentic flavor and use it instead of sugar...Keeps best if left in an open container.
Excellent Product!
I purchased this product specifically for making fermented plant juices for our nursery business, however it has also found its way into our cooking, and I'll never go back. The flavor is rich and incredible and the texture is something else entirely - lends a whole new quality to baked goods. Goes great melted with butter and poured over freshly popped popcorn too.
Great product and price.
Top-quality organic jaggery, very nice this is offered here in the US. Quick shipping and the customer service is excellent. Thank you.
sweet indulgence without guilt
I like the powder Jaggery because it is easy to handle. I enjoy it in warm milk (A2 milk) with cacao powder and almost every where instead of regular sugar. I even enjoy one tsp of Jaggery powder itself now and then.
The best quality ever
I purchased Jaggery many times from local Indian stores, but this is the best quality I have ever experienced. Price was good too and a very fair shipping cost. Many companies overcharge for shipping, but not here. As a matter of fact, I have placed two separate orders on the same day. Initially, I was charged shipping for each, but when they noticed the same person, the same shipping address, they refunded me the shipping cost for one order and shipped my two separate orders together. That was wonderful! High-quality customer service! Thank you so much!

This package was packed brilliantly, it was obvious care and thought and planning had gone into the packing. Some one had studied how things could get damaged or shifted around in transit and had worked out solutions. Thank you.
I travel to India, Asia, South America, and Europe to bring you back some of the most pristine, pure, organic clean ingredients in the world. All the products you'll find here at Pure Indian Foods are ones that me and my family use personally.
My family has been making ghee since 1889. Today, my wife, Nalini (aka "The Ghee Lady"), carries on this tradition. She still makes all the ghee and tightens every jar by hand.
We are passionate about bringing you traditional and nourishing foods. It's our labor of love and service to human-kind. Thank you for supporting our small family business.
