Piloncillo Mexican Brown Sugarcane Cone | 8oz | Pack of 5 By Border Merchant A raw form of cane sugar, Piloncillo comes in handy as a sweetener and as a spice. Shaped like a cone, it melts easily and can be used in many Mexican drinks and desserts, like atole and flan. To break off some sugar from the cone, carefully cut some slivers or chunks with a knife, or use a grater if you're using it as a brown sugar substitute. Piloncillo is made by crushing sugarcane and reserving the juice, which is then boiled, reduced to a thick syrup and poured into a cone mold and dried. * Piloncillo (brown sugarcane) * Both a sweetener and a spice * Good substitute for brown sugar * Made from the juice of sugarcane * Reduced to a syrup and poured into a cone mola * Great for making many Mexican desserts and drinks * By Border Merchant
