Ribbon Cane Syrup from this type of sugar can is generally darker, but not as dark as molasses. Because this cane is grown by small farmers and refined on site, it is less pure than common sugar cane syrup. The process leaves ribbon cane syrup a brown color.
Ribbon cane is also very sweet to the taste. Being less refined, it also has a richer, almost full flavor, while sugar cane syrup is just very sweet.
We haven't tried this yet, but I'm sure we'll find it just as good as the other two products we got with the syrup. The best part was that we ordered 3 different items on a Sunday afternoon and they arrived in 3 days on Wednesday. I had also ordered a book from Stillwater Farm Market and when they went to mail it, the service said our address didn't come up in the system. Instead of changing it as other companies have done, they called to verify the address. We call that excellent service.
