About Us
Do you have a sweet tooth but worry about the negative effects of sugar on your health?
Look no further than jaggery, the natural and nutritious sugar alternative. Jaggery, also known as "gur" in Hindi, is a traditional unrefined sweetener that has been used in India and other Asian countries for centuries. Unlike white sugar, jaggery retains its natural minerals and vitamins, making it a healthier choice. One of the main benefits of jaggery is its high iron content. Iron is an essential mineral that helps to transport oxygen throughout the body and prevent anaemia. Jaggery also contains calcium, potassium, magnesium, and phosphorus, which are all important for maintaining strong bones and teeth. In addition to its nutritional value, jaggery has a unique and delicious flavour that enhances many dishes. It has a caramel-like taste and a deep, rich aroma that pairs well with spices such as cardamom, cinnamon, and ginger. Jaggery can be used in a variety of sweet and savoury dishes, including desserts, chutneys, and marinades. Jaggery is also a popular ingredient in Ayurvedic medicine, a holistic healing system that originated in India. Ayurvedic practitioners believe that jaggery can help to balance the body's doshas (energies) and improve digestion, respiratory health, and skin conditions. Jaggery is a tasty and healthy alternative to white sugar that can add flavour and nutrition to your diet. So, go ahead and indulge your sweet tooth with a natural and nutritious sweetener!

Sugar cane Jaggery Powder
Sugarcane Jaggery is the most common in the Indian diet. It is created by crushing sugarcane for juice extraction, filtering and boiling the juice for concentration, and finally chilling and solidifying the liquid to form jaggery blocks. It is most commonly consumed in its crystallized state. The flavour of sugarcane jaggery is sweet and has a trace of salt depending on the juice extracted.
