Yacon – what is it anyway?

Those who don't know yacon yet may need some time to get used to the word. It sounds so exotic and uncommon, but at least pronouncing the word doesn't make your tongue dizzy like ashwagandha or baobab. But what exactly is yacon (intonation on the second syllable)? Yacon is a plant belonging to the Smallanthus genus. It comes from South America and has been grown over there for millennia. Yacon leaves are used for medicinal tea, but the most beloved part of the plant is the tuber. It can be eaten both raw and cooked. Due to their pleasant sweetness, the sweet potato like tuber is often processed into juice or syrup, the latter of which has become increasingly popular here in Europe. So that you don't need to be in FoMo (fear of missing out), you can order the delicious syrup from us!

Yacon syrup as an alternative to regular sugar

We know what you must be thinking: there are almost as many sugar alternatives as sand at the beach. Whether its maple syrup, agave syrup, date syrup, coconut syrup or rice syrup – it has become very easy (partly thanks to KoRo) to replace conventional sugar. Yet we are now offering yacon syrup as well, why would we do that? There is a good reason (or several good reasons) for this, we don't add just any products to our selection. Our organic yacon syrup is a great alternative to refined sugar that more and more people are trying to avoid. The yacon helps, because its carbohydrates are naturally stored as fructooligosaccharides (FOS). You have probably heard of FOS under the name oligofructose, as a sugar replacement. They contain 30-50% of the sweetening power of sugar, yet they are extremely low in calories and are metabolized into fibre (inulin) by your body.

What does yacon syrup taste like?

Most of all, the flavour is sweet, who would have thought? The sweetness is not as strong as refined sugar, which you should keep in mind when following recipes. We think that this is one of the positives of yacon syrup, because your desserts don't get overly sweet if you happen to drop a spoonful in by accident. The syrup's flavour could be described as caramel-like, making it great to refine desserts such as cake, cookies or energy balls. Your morning porridge or smoothie can also benefit from a spoonful of yacon syrup. One last little hint: use our organic yacon syrup to sweeten drinks like your pumpkin spiced latte or iced-coffee.

Questions & answers: Organic yacon syrup 500ml

Search FAQ section:

Is yacon syrup healthy?

Healthy is above all a balanced diet and sufficient exercise. Our organic yacon syrup can be used as a great substitute for table sugar and has a delicious caramel note that will surely seduce your taste buds!

How do I store the yacon syrup?

You can store the yacon syrup at room temperature. You should only make sure that it is protected from direct sunlight.

What is it about the fructooligosaccharides in yacon syrup?

Fructooligosaccharides, or simply oligofructose, has long been used as a sugar substitute. In the body, oligofructose is eventually broken down into inulin, a valuable dietary fiber. Although oligofructose has only about 30-50% of the sweetening power of refined sugar, it has slightly fewer calories. For people with a fructose intolerance, however, the sugar is unfortunately not recommended.

What is special about KoRo's organic yacon syrup?

If you have read through the product text of the yacon syrup, you will probably already have noticed that our yacon syrup can shine with so many facets: It is not only fat-free (0 g/100 g) and vegan, but also gets some of its sweetness from the oligofructose it contains. Not without reason this valuable sweetener is added also to many food as valuable sugar substitute. As if that were not enough, only 100% yacon tuber comes to us in the 500 g advantage glass. This comes from organic farming.

Can I make the yacon syrup myself?

To make yacon syrup yourself, you logically need first of all the yacon tubers. You are lucky that you do not live in ancient times, because the yacon plants grew only in the Andes. Nowadays they are even cultivated in Germany or you can even grow them yourself at home. Our production process looks like this: Select the tubers, wash, disinfect, peel and cut. Then we put them into the juicer, through the 1st filtration, vacuum, through the 2nd filtration, until we can finally fill them into the jars. Surely there are easier recipes on the internet, but in order for the syrup to be as nice and fine as ours, we think the steps are necessary. To come back to the initial question: Of course you can make the yacon syrup yourself, but whether it is really worth the effort is debatable. And besides, we have already done the work for you. So stop worrying and order our delicious yacon syrup from organic farming simply to your home.

Is the yacon syrup organic?

Of course! Our yacon syrup comes from organic farming.

Is our organic yacon syrup vegan?

Yes, our yacon syrup is vegan. Except for 100% yacon root, literally nothing comes into our glass, so the syrup comes without the addition of animal ingredients. Our yacon syrup is therefore also a super vegan alternative to honey due to its honey-like, carmel-like taste.
