What do you do with brown sugar? If you have no idea apart from adding it to your teas or coffee, why not try our candy sugar cakes or coconut cakes! With its molasses content, these tiny indulging crystals can be melted down to create the most delicious snack, cake, syrup or drink, just to name a few.

Experimenting with sugar, here we have made the most delectable sugar cakes that is made in my home for many years and have decided to share them with you. In the video clip below, we have attached it to show you how it all came together.

Once having a go tag us in on your experience. Now, let us get making!

1-1/2 Cups brown organic sugar

1 Stick cinnamon

5-6 Star Anise

8 cups water

Start by removing the coconut meat from its shell, washing and setting it aside in prep for grating. With an electrical grater or hand grater, begin to grate until all is completely grated.

Pour in a large pot of sugar, all spices, grated coconut and water. Bringing to a boil on medium heat, allow to boil for 10 - 15 minutes stirring occasionally for 10 minutes before reducing the heat to low. 

Allow the mixture to boil until it reduces and develops into a thick paste as it reduces its liquid. Once this is seen, begin by prepping a cookie tray or a place you have decided to set the sugar cakes. Begin to spray the surface for placements. Start by scooping a desired amount of the mixture (remember it must be at this point thick in consistency) onto the sprayed surface until all is layered.

Allowing to set/harden before moving from its sprayed surface, you can now enjoy what we occasionally indulge in.

Remember to have a go at making these and tag us in on your experience.
