Diced Sugarcane

Perhaps the most organic form of sugar, Sugarcane is technically a grass that is tall and tropical and produces nutritious fruit. Known for its glucose, sucrose and fructose content, sugarcane is an organic source of quick carbohydrates and is rich in vitamins and minerals.

Did you know? Sugarcane juice may be one of the healthiest ways for those with diabetes to indulge their sweet tooth. While it does contain sugar and carbohydrates, it has a lower glycemic index. This avoids intense spikes (and crashes) in blood sugar along with polyphenols that can help regulate blood glucose levels.

Shelf Life and Storage

Owing to the high levels of sugar, sugarcane tends to spoil rapidly. It’s best to consume cut sugarcane within a couple of days and only store it upright in a cool part of your pantry with ample ventilation. However, if you have a full sugarcane stalk, you can keep it with you for 2-4 weeks.
