Description
White table sugar comes from either sugarcane or sugar beets.Beet sugar is manufactured by extracting beet juice, which is purified and heated to create a concentrated syrup, which then is crystallized to form granulated sugar. Organic cane sugar is a single crystallization sugar. Organic sugar crystals are golden in color and can have a mild, pleasant floral or fruity aroma and flavor. White cane sugar is made from re-melting conventionally grown single crystallization sugar which is then refined, re-crystallized, whitened and dried. White sugar is available in many crystal sizes such as baker’s special, fine, ultrafine, caster and sanding sugar.
Brown sugar is crystalized sugar with molasses. Some natural brown sugars have particular names and characteristics, and are sold as turbinado, demerara or raw sugar if they have been centrifuged to a large degree. Brown sugars that have been only mildly centrifuged or unrefined have a higher degree of molasses and are called various names across the globe according to their country of origin: e.g. panela,rapadura, jaggery, muscovado, piloncillo, etc.
