White sugar is fully refined and bleached. Indic Wisdom's Khandsari Sugar and Jaggery Powder take a different path. Khandsari undergoes only a single crystallisation process and retains some molasses, while Jaggery is unrefined and retains its full molasses content. Both are natural sweeteners, minimally processed, and suited for everyday tea, cooking, and traditional sweets. No chemical bleaching, no additives, no sulphur. For Indian households looking to move away from refined white sugar, these natural sugar alternatives offer flavour and character without synthetic processing.
