BANABAN PREMIUM GRADE ORGANIC COCONUT SUGAR
Packed 500 grams resealable pouches
BANABAN Coconut Sugar called Ka maimai by the Banaban people and is made from very fresh coconut nectar that is collected from the sap of the coconut tree and processed immediately to avoid fermentation. The fresh sap is then boiled and evaporated into granules, crystallizing the sap to look like sugar. Not all Coconut Sugars are created Equal.
BANABAN Coconut Sugar is made from 100% pure natural Coconut Sugar that has not had anti-fermentation agents such as lime, calcium hydroxide or sodium metabisulfie or additives such as sugar cane added during processing. BANABAN Coconut Sugar is made from 100% pure coconut sap and is not blended with other inferior types of palm or cane sugars.
What are the levels of Sucrose, Fructose and Glucose in Coconut Sugar? The sucrose concentration in fresh coconut sap is about 12% (ave.) by weight, although this varies from tree to tree, tree variety, and may range from 10% to over 14%. To make Coconut Sugar from the Coconut Nectar Syrup (Ka maimai) the sap is boiled until it becomes increasingly more concentrated and sweeter right up to the point where the liquid has completely evaporated. When completely dry, sugar type crystals have formed that are approximately 85% sucrose, 3% fructose and 2% glucose (fructose and glucose are known together as invert sugars) with a light to dark brown color and the characteristic coconut sugar flavour.

About Nature Pacific
Specialising in Fiji Grown Virgin Coconut Oil
Ken Sigrah and Stacey King are the couple behind NATURE PACIFIC and TRIBAL PACIFICA who understand very well the problems facing indigenous communities as they struggle for daily survival and the upholding of their ethnic identity in a rapidly changing world.NATURE PACIFIC is a joint Australian-Fiji company specialising in the development of certified organic and ‘organically grown’ Island products and traditional remedies that have been part of daily life through out the Pacific for centuries.
NATURE PACIFIC also links with sister company – TRIBAL PACIFICA as part of a Pacific Islands Group of companies which encourages business with local indigenous communities through the sale of Tribal Art and Artifacts from Papua New Guinea and the Pacific
Ken is an indigenous Banaban Pacific Islander whose people are referred to as the ‘Forgotten People of the Pacific’ (for more detailed information visit . His partner, Stacey is an Australian, with six generations of her family’s involvement with the Banabans and fifteen years experience in aid and cultural projects in the Pacific region.
They both share a professional background in the Australian Natural Health industry over the past nine years and have developed a BANABAN range of Fiji grown Virgin Coconut Oil products to promote what the Banabans have known for centuries. For Ken and his people the Coconut tree aptly known as ‘The Tree of Life!’ is an essential part of daily life. As Ken states, ‘we cannot survive back home on our island without the Coconut Tree, it is the essence of daily life for us.’ ‘The Coconut Tree provides us with coconut milk, oil for cooking and to protect our skin and hair, material to build our homes and wood for our canoes. We even turn the toddy we collect from the tree into sweet syrup, kamaimai which is a lovely sweet drink or the men ferment the toddy into our local beer. We credit the flesh from the coconut with providing us with strong thick hair and strong teeth. Various parts of the tree are used in our indigenous medicines.
