Great substitute for molasses or maple syrup

Delicious and healthy
“This is my first time trying yacon syrup, and it's delicious. It's very dark and has a toasted raisin, molasses flavor. I'm looking forward to trying it drizzled on ice cream, yogurt, oatmeal, and pancakes. I also really appreciate the low glycemic load, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, prebiotics, and other healthy qualities. It's pretty expensive though, but a little goes a long way.”
