    I had to google what Sucanat and Rapadura are, so I figured I’d add to the comments for others that may not know.

    According to Wikipedia: “Sucanat (a contraction of “Sugar Cane Natural”) is non-refined cane sugar. Unlike refined and processed white sugar, Sucanat retains its molasses content; it is essentially pure dried sugar cane juice. The juice is extracted by mechanical processes, heated and cooled at which point the small brown grainy crystals are formed.

    Sucanat is generally accepted as a substitute for brown sugar.”

    And: “Rapadura is the Portuguese name for a form of sugarcane juice, used as a sweetener or as a candy, common in Latin American countries such as Brazil and Venezuela (where it is known as papelón) and the Caribbean. See also panela. It is dried sugarcane juice, in the form of a brick, and is largely produced on site at sugarcane plantations in the very warm tropical regions. It was originally created as an easier way to transport sugar.”

    This is something I have been looking for. I love this at the sushi bar. If anyone makes their own rolls at home try a tempura banana in the middle of the rice and the mago slices on top and drizzeled with honey and coconut milk. You will be hooked. I know I was.
