Discover sugar from coconut palm flowers

On the fertile volcanic soils of Central Java in Indonesia, where lush coconut palms spread their leaves towards the sun, one of the region’s most unique and prized products is harvested – sugar from coconut palm flowers, known locally as Gula Java. This natural sugar, obtained from the flower nectar of coconut palms, is a true treasure of Indonesian cuisine, valued for its rich, caramel flavour and deep, golden colour.

The history of Gula Java goes back centuries, when it was not only a valuable source of sweetness but also an element of trade and cultural exchange across the Indonesian archipelago. At Spices by YANGO® we want to bring you closer to this traditional product, offering Gula Java in the form of natural, unrefined sugar that is hand-harvested and processed to preserve all its valuable properties as well as its unique taste and aroma.
