     I am woefully behind on reading the list postings so forgive me if 
     someone has mentioned this already.  I just got the latest King Arthur 
     Flour catalog.  They are selling small cones of unrefined sugar from 
     Mexico that, IIRC, they are calling piloncillos.  (Of course, I left 
     the catalog at home this morning!)  The piture looks like brown sugar 
     but the description simply says "unrefined" sugar.  I was wondering if 
     these might be comparable to the cones of sugar used in the MA.  The 
     catalog actually specifies that this is meant to be grated and they 
     even sell a little grater to do it with.  I can post more info on 
     Monday if anyone is interested or call them at 800-827-6836 or visit 
     their web page at http://home.kingarthurflour.com
     
     I don't have any affiliation with them (unless lusting after several 
     things in their catalog counts!) I just thought the sugar cones were 
     interesting.
