If you will take notice there is no sugar added to this recipe and all the flavors are natural. I have listed below a website for the health benefits of unsulphered black strap molasses, which include stablization of blood sugar, relief from rheumatoid arthritis, lower cholestrol levels, healthy nervous system, and increased red blood cell production. http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?dbid=118&tname=foodspice#healthbenefits They taste great.
