Fake Arenga sugar produced by mills rogue made of:
1. former sugar (sugar that has been stored a long time usually have a mushy)
2 Flour
3 Sugar synthesis (Cyclamate)
4. borax (Speaker)
Though the original Arenga sugar only from Nira cooked and clumping of red and ready to be served and of course agan all its production can not be much compared to rogue producers that could reach 1-2 quintals, Well certainly we wonder how to differentiate between the two .. ???. Maybe with laboratory testing is very easy to detect levels of borax, then how can we as a layman to distinguish.
I tell physically are:
The original Arenga sugar, finer texture than the fake palm sugar. Fake Arenga sugar will hold if in fine-grain and coarse.
The original Arenga sugar, taste the sweetness like a legit and do not make us cough, but the fake palm sugar. tastes very sweet (sugar knowingly synthesis) and somewhat bitter.
The original Arenga sugar, if there is no such cut shaft or hole–hole, but if the fake holes scattered.
But when it made the drinks, in it, this is the case, we can not tell anymore.
