Non-Refined Sugar Cakes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Online Retailer Sponge is Offering Its First Non-Refined Sugar Cake

— November 26, 2022 — Lifestyle
Sponge, the online cake retailer in the UK, has announced it will be expanding its baked goods offerings with a new non-refined sugar cake in response to the demands of consumers. The Maple and Pecan Cake is crafted with non-refined ingredients including whole pecans, crushed pecans and maple syrup for sweetness to give it a more complex flavor profile for consumers to enjoy. The cake has been debuted in perfect time for the holiday season and offers the perfect option to order when looking to serve guests a premium dessert.

Head of Sponge Richard Fowler spoke further on the non-refined sugar cake saying, "Our first non-refined sugar cake follows feedback we’ve had from customers, asking for a range of non-refined sugar options to accommodate for those who need to keep an eye on their sugar intake. It’s taken several months of development to create the ideal balance of flavours and texture; it’s certainly not been straightforward, but we’re delighted with the outcome.”
