Frozen Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) is a unique tropical product widely enjoyed for its natural sweetness, refreshing juice, and culinary versatility. In Vietnam, sugarcane thrives in provinces such as Tay Ninh, Soc Trang, and Ben Tre, where fertile soil and favorable climate allow for abundant harvests of high-quality canes. GMG carefully selects fresh stalks and applies advanced IQF technology to deliver frozen sugarcane products that preserve their natural flavor, aroma, and nutritional value for international markets.
Key Characteristics
- Appearance: light green to golden stalks with juicy, fibrous flesh.
- Texture: firm yet juicy, maintaining its natural crunch and freshness after thawing.
- Flavor: naturally sweet with subtle grassy notes, refreshing and satisfying.

Harvest and Processing
Sugarcane in Vietnam is typically harvested from November to April. Immediately after harvest, stalks are peeled, trimmed, and cut into convenient portions.
