Wholesome Blue Agave is a 100% pure natural low glycemic sweetener harvested from the core of the Blue Agave . Blue Agave is ideal for sweetening beverages like coffee and lemonade, or for topping oatmeal, pancakes, waffles, yogurt, cereal and more. It is also great in smoothies, iced tea, or cocktails as it dissolves quickly in cold beverages. Agave is easy to bake with as well. Try it wherever you would use sugar. Blue Agave has a Low Glycemic Index (GI), so it is slowly absorbed into the body, preventing spikes in blood sugar. It is 1-1/4 times sweeter than sugar, so you can use less to achieve your perfect level of sweetness. Wholesome Blue Agave is now available in recyclable Green Bottles made from up to 30% -based resin. These bottles are BPA free and recyclable PET. Fair Trade Certification is Wholesome’s guarantee that our farming cooperatives are paid directly for the agave grown.

About the Brand --------------- Wholesome Sweeteners brings the very best of nature's sweetness to you and your family every day. Wholesome believes in traditional ways, artisanal products and a very light environmental footprint. After searching the world for the best products, Wholesome has focused on the tropics, where the climate and conditions are just right for growing sweeteners. With Fair Trade Certified™ and natural sweeteners from Central and South America and Africa, Wholesome is committed to making the world a sweeter place, one spoonful at a time. Company Overview * Founded in 1995 in Sugar Land, Texas, Wholesome Sweeteners supplies the American market the highest quality natural and sweeteners from around the world. * Wholesome Sweeteners pioneered efforts to bring sugar and honey into the Fair Trade movement and was the first to bring Fair Trade Certified sweeteners to American markets. Wholesome Sweeteners now offers a wide range of Fair Trade Certified, and natural sweeteners produced by traditional methods from nature’s best resources. Fair Trade Certification is a promise that: * Farmers’ cooperatives are paid directly (no middlemen). * The members receive a fair and reliable set price for their crops. * The cooperative has access to loans and additional premiums for community and business development. * It’s trade, not aid. Cooperatives decide how the money is invested; the only stipulation is that every member has a vote in how the inves™ent is made. Social Responsibility The Fair Trade Certified™ logo represents Wholesome's commi™ent to consumers that a fair premium price is paid to the farmers’ cooperatives that supply Wholesome’s Fair Trade products. Since initiating the Fair Trade Certified program in 2005, Wholesome Sweeteners has paid more than $800,000 directly to Fair Trade cooperative partners in Costa Rica, Malawi, Mexico and Paraguay. Fair Trade means that farmers can send their kids to school, keep their land, develop the quality of their harvest and build thriving communities. Beyond the parameters of Fair Trade Certification, Wholesome selects suppliers based on a demonstrated commi™ent to social responsibility and community outreach. Environmental Responsibility Wholesome Sweeteners' ethos is shaped by a deep concern for the long-term of the planet and all of its inhabitants. The USDA logo is Wholesome's promise that we hold every product to the highest environmental standard. Each product bearing the USDA logo has been grown and milled to USDA standards, without the aid of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, icides or s. Wholesome uses traditional methods: * Fair Trade certification includes a commitment to sustainable agriculture. In recent years, unprecedented acreage has been converted from conventional agriculture to cultivation, reducing exposure to pesticides, icides and fungicides. * From the seed stock to harvest, our sugar cane is cultivated and harvested by hand and grown without synthetic fertilizers, pesticides or icides. * Wholesome’s cane fields are never burned. During the harvest, trimmings are allowed to stay where they fall, decomposing naturally, returning ents to the soil, helping protect topsoil and ground water and providing habitat for wildlife. * At the small mills in Costa Rica, Malawi and Paraguay, our sweeteners are made simply and the spent sugar cane, called base, is often recycled as fuel to generate electricity for the mill and nearby villages. * Deep in Southern Mexico’s jungles, honeybees browse on lush wildflowers without exposure to antibiotics or s.
