Overview
A 16 ounce bottle of organic blackstrap molasses from Wholesome, aimed at everyday pantry use rather than bulk cooking. It carries USDA Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO Project, Kosher and vegan certifications.
This is a certification heavy product: organic sugarcane grown in South America, Fair Trade sourcing, and a stack of third party seals that matter more to shoppers screening for ethical or allergen concerns than to flavor. At 16 oz it is sized for a household that bakes occasionally rather than a bulk kitchen, and its near 10,000 monthly purchases suggest it is a common pantry staple rather than a specialty item.
- 16 oz bottle, single pack
- USDA Organic and Fair Trade Certified sourcing
- Non-GMO Project Verified, Kosher, vegan
- Organic sugarcane grown in South America
Who it's for
Shoppers who specifically want organic and Fair Trade certified molasses for gingerbread, cookies, or barbecue sauce, and who prefer a bottle sized for normal home use rather than a bulk jug.
Pros and cons
- USDA Organic and Fair Trade Certified
- Non-GMO Project Verified, Kosher and vegan
- Sized for regular home baking rather than bulk storage
- Naturally contains iron and magnesium
- 16 oz will run out quickly for frequent bakers
- Certifications add cost over a non certified blackstrap molasses
Performance notes
Blackstrap molasses is the most reduced grade of the three boils cane sugar goes through, which is why it reads darker and more bitter than lighter grades and carries more of the naturally occurring iron, magnesium, calcium and potassium left behind after the sugar is extracted. The organic and Fair Trade claims describe how the sugarcane was grown and traded, not the flavor itself.
