Review: If you are going to need this for baking, I suggest you give yourself time since you won't be able to just scoop this out of the bag when you get it. Many reviews shared that the sugar comes hard. They are not lying! I purchased this product to use in water kefir since I don't like the overpowering taste of molasses. This is my second box and both came hard. The good thing is the box tells you how to make the sugar soft, so they know the deal. Fortunately, I have a clear brown sugar canister that has a terracotta disk that's stored in the cover. A few hours after putting the literal brick inside that canister, the sugar started to soften. The next day, I was able to scoop out what I needed without issue. The sugar is not very sweet, but it has a very nice flavor compared to store bought brown sugar. Though I purchased this for water Kefir, it came just in time for me to try it in some homemade chocolate chip cookies.
Review: Based on recipes that swear by Muscovite sugar, I was excited to receive this brown sugar to use in my oatmeal cookies. I opened the package and cut the inner package open with scissors and thought I would scoop out some sugar to use in my cookies. It was impossible, as it was as hard as a rock. I slammed it on my granite counters, and it was so hard that I thought it was going to crack my counter. I could not get it to break apart. I have no idea how old this product is as there is no discernible expiration date on the packaging other than the one pictured here, and I’m not even certain that that is an expiration date. There is a label on the top of the box that reads that if the sugar is hard, cover it with a wet cloth until it becomes soft. I never imagined that it would be so hard that I couldn’t even break into it. I rarely write negative reviews, but this one certainly does deserve a negative review.

Make sure to keep something to maintain the moisture level and put it in a better bag as soon as you get it. It has a very nice, deep flavor that is exactly what I wanted for my Peanut Butter cookies. It does take a bit longer to fully cream into butter, it is slower to break down, but I think that is to be expected. For what it is, I think the price is reasonable, I could never find something like this in my area.
