Sucanat is a less refined sugar readily available at major grocery stores. It retains more of the molasses, which not only gives it a deeper flavor, but also provides nutrients and vitamins that are lacking in white sugar. Calorie for calorie there isn’t much difference between white sugar and sucanat, but I like using it in certain baked goods to make them a tad more healthful for my family, especially breakfast muffins and breads.
