My sugar is raw!
 
What does "my sugar is raw" exactly mean, explain it either on english or spanish, I can understand both, thanks.

Raw sugar hasn't been refined and it looks a little tannish.....refined sugar is really white....then there are the brown sugars....they are brown because they contain molasses.

Maybe it helps a little.

Ok thanks, and referring to madonna's song candy shop, what would it mean?

The whole song is about seduction. Suggesting that one's sugar is raw is just another attempt at persuasion, that one has more to offer (raw sugar has a more complex taste because of the presence of molasses). Saying that one's sugar is raw is not an established idiomatic phrase, so far as I know, so this is just my interpretation of Madonna's song. :twocents:
