Wholesome FT Organic Molasses 32oz Bottle, 1-Pack

I have tried many pantry staples, but Wholesome Organic Blackstrap Molasses truly impressed me with its richness, quality, and versatility. From the moment I opened the bottle, I could tell this was not your average sweetener. The color is deep and dark, almost glossy, and the texture is thick and luxurious without being difficult to pour. It feels substantial and authentic. The flavor is bold, robust, and beautifully complex. There is a deep caramelized sweetness balanced by a slightly earthy, almost smoky undertone that makes it perfect for baking, marinades, and even stirring into oatmeal or smoothies. I used it in ginger cookies and the depth of flavor it added was incredible. It gave the finished product a warm, old fashioned richness that refined sugar simply cannot replicate. What makes this blackstrap molasses stand out even more is its nutritional value. Unlike refined sweeteners, blackstrap molasses retains naturally occurring minerals such as iron, calcium, and magnesium. I appreciate having a sweetener in my kitchen that not only enhances flavor but also offers added nutritional benefits. The fact that it is organic gives me even more confidence in its purity and sourcing. The packaging is practical and sturdy, and the bottle design makes it easy to measure without excessive dripping or mess. Even after several uses, the cap seals tightly and keeps everything clean. To sum it all up, this molasses is a high quality, flavorful, and nutrient rich addition to any kitchen. Whether you are baking traditional recipes, experimenting with savory glazes, or adding a mineral boost to your morning routine, this product delivers exceptional taste and value. It has earned a permanent place in my pantry and easily deserves five stars.

This tastes really good! Not too sweet with just the right amount of bitterness. Seems to be very fresh as the culture is still active and foaming! Had to put it in the fridge to stop the bottle from swelling up. This is definitely healthy. Highly recommend this brand!

Great tasting, high quality addition to my morning shake. It gives me sustained energy. If you are like me and are looking for an alternative healthy life style this is a supplement no one is talking about. Research it.

Wholesome Organic Unsulphured Molasses. While “Blackstrap” is not listed on the front of the bottle, it is listed in ingredients on the back as “Organic Unsulphured Blackstrap Molasses. Meaning no sulfur dioxide is used Blackstrap unsulphured molasses is the most nutrient-dense and least sweet form of molasses, produced from the third boiling of mature sugarcane. Blackstrap molasses is often used as a natural health supplement due to its high concentration of minerals. * Anemia Prevention: According to Healthline, it is a significant plant-based source of iron, with one tablespoon providing approximately 20% of the daily value. * Bone Health: It contains calcium and magnesium, which are essential for maintaining bone density and preventing osteoporosis. * Digestive Support: It acts as a natural laxative. According to WebMD, research has specifically shown it can help address constipation in children. * Low Glycemic Index: With a glycemic load of around 55, it causes slower blood sugar rises compared to refined sugar. * Additional Nutrients: It also provides potassium, manganese, selenium, and Vitamin B6. The primary difference between molasses types is the number of times the sugarcane juice has been boiled. * Light Molasses: Result of the first boiling. It is the sweetest, thinnest, and most common variety for pancakes or cookies. * Dark (Robust) Molasses: Result of the second boiling. It is thicker, less sweet, and commonly used in gingerbread. * Blackstrap Molasses: Result of the third boiling. It is the darkest and most viscous, containing the least sugar and highest mineral content. "Unsulphured" indicates that the molasses was produced from mature, sun-ripened sugarcane and did not require the addition of sulfur dioxide as a preservative.

Black Strap Molasses offers a great source of plant based iron as a nutritional supplement. This product arrived with a small leak of liquid through the seal on the bottles’ mouths. It has been easier to drink the molasses once dissolved in water after I first dissolved lemon syrup into the water (the Vitamin C content in citrus improves the intestinal absorption of dietary iron).

Everyone has a different reason for wanting to use molasses, especially for that added jolt of 750mg of potassium. Me? I’ve been using it successfully to avoid extreme anemia and also for old-fashioned ginger cookies which I adore. On the Wholesome Sweeteners site, they offer up one by Chef Malika Ameen, which I’ve included below. There’s a decent jolt of iron in the Wholesome Sweeteners Organic Molasses at 15%. I was at the docs again yesterday and so far I’ve been avoiding those specialized iron shots. A tablespoon away seems to be doing the trick. This molasses does have a strong taste, but that’s to be expected with blackstrap molasses. I’m finding that it’s not only good for iron intake, but also a nice little energy booster. Cookies not so much so, but good for an emotional boost. I do like the fact that it’s Fairtrade Certified in addition to being USDA certified. It’s so much better than having to take pills or, worse yet, get shots.

As far as the molasses goes, this is pretty much the best quality, assuming they are being honest in their labeling. Pure low-/no-sulfur blackstrap molasses, organic, non-gmo, etc. No complaints there. The problem I had was with the safety seal on the bottle, you know, the seal over the opening that, if intact, assures you the product has not been tampered with since being manufactured. In my case the seal HAD been tampered, there was a hole in it as if someone took a standard pencil and simply punched a hole in the seal. The molasses jar was packed on its side, allowing the molasses to seep through the "seal" then up the winding threads and OUT OF THE BOTTLE, causing a mess in the package which also had another item I'd ordered. Fortunately the second item was unspoiled, except its packaging was messed up, being partially covered in thick wholesome organic non-gmo blackstrap molasses. Also, fortunately, I don't plan to eat this molasses: I'm mixing a little with some sugar, yeast and warm water (maybe some ACV too), letting the yeast foam up and pouring the mixture onto the ground. Why? It is said to attract earthworms which in turn helps make that area ideal for planting, which is my Spring goal, planting two trees. That's the product story. But wait – there's more! In addition to this situation the delivery was far short of Amazon's high standards. (This did not affect the star count as it is not a product issue). Driver claimed package "was left near the front door or porch". False, and (conveniently) no photograph. The package was nowhere near the house nor at either of my only two neighbors'. Turns out the box was left behind my mailbox a quarter mile away on a different street, one with a fair amount of traffic. Anybody driving that street could easily see the Amazon "smile" logo, pull over and grab (steal) the box in under ten seconds, then take off with who-knows-what. Why? Evidently the Amazon driver figured he/she didn't want to drive the distance to deliver to the house. Fortunately this unacceptable situation is rare but sometimes happens. Since I am unable to tell Amazon about this privately AFAIK, I'm going public here.

Grate taste, and fast delivery! I use it in for my tea drinks.

Helps bring up the iron levels. I've been struggling with anemia because of hookworms. Cleanses haven't been able to eradicate the hookworms, so I needed something to help my energy levels. This seems to help. I use a liquid iron now that works better since I couldn't really stand the taste of the molasses after a while. But I use it once in a while in cookies or beans and it adds a really nice flavor.

骨粗鬆症予防対策にはカルシウムではなく総合的なミネラル摂取をって事がリサーチしててわかって、何を摂ればよいのかをリサーチしてたら推奨されている食品の一つが黒糖モラシスでした。ミネラル豊富で骨が強くなるって聞きました。味は塩味が聞いたあまり甘く無い黒糖って感じです。なれなくちゃ美味しいとは思えないでしょうが、悪くないです。黒糖が好きな人は普通に摂取できると思います。

Order arrived exceptionally well packaged in an Amazon box. Quality of the product is highly superior to another brand that I have purchased earlier, through amazon too, and unfortunately I had to throw 6 jars in the bin as a result of the poor quality and no customer service. Wholesome organic unsulphured blackstrap molasses has a shiny, fresh, and syrupy texture to it. The taste is delicious. Pours with ease from the bottle. I tried it directly from the spoon and it does not stick in your throat like the other brand, goes down easily and has a beautiful taste and a fresh aroma to it. It dilutes properly even in water and could be used in recipes without ruining it. If you are looking for quality blackstrap molasses look no more this is the product for you. I highly recommend it!

Purchased for the first time to use in the garden, thus only time will tell?
