Fair Trade Organic Sugar at Costco

I was able to get a 10lb bag of this: Wholesome Sweeteners for $7.99.

As a bonus, it was only marginally more money than Domino brand. 

I don't know much about this brand, but it looks good to me.  Hopefully it bakes up as well as the white stuff.

Re: Fair Trade Organic Sugar at Costco

  • I am trying to work my way on being more green.  So is this sugar just like regular sugar?

  • I'm trying to be more green as well.  According to the package, you can directly substitute for regular sugar.  I'm not sure about the taste, since I haven't opened it yet.
  • it's what we use... other than the color being slightly more tan, it looks, cooks and tastes just like conventional sugar

    I haven't researched this particular brand, but it's sold at the local co-op that researches everything and only sells the good stuff...

  • Oh, nice!  Thanks for sharing!

  • I've used it in multiple applications and it works great.
  • OH!  I hope our Costco gets that soon.  I've been struggling with the sugar issue and this sounds like it could be a better solution. 
  • This is the only sugar I use except it doesn't work well if you make caramels.  I've seen this sugar at local natural stores selling for $5 for an 8 oz bag.

  • Thanks for sharing! This works EXACTLY like regular sugar and tastes like it too. Actually, I think it tastes better. I've used it in meringues and there is a *slight" color difference, but it doesn't affect the taste.
