Soft Dark Brown Cane Sugar 1kg

Részletes termékleírás

The sugar cane used to make cane sugar grows in tropical and subtropical regions. Interestingly, only the plant's stalk is cut during harvesting; it is not pulled out of the ground, allowing it to grow again without needing to be replanted—in other words, it is a renewable source of sugar. This not only makes cane sugar production economical but is also beneficial from an environmental perspective.

Cane sugar is obtained from the juice found in the plant's fleshy stalk, and no additives are used during processing. During the process, the fine crystalline sugar and molasses separate (this by-product is later used to make rum), but some of the colorants remain enclosed in the sugar crystals, giving the sugar its special, pleasant color. The more colorants remain in the sugar, the more distinctive its taste and aroma.

The special feature of soft dark brown cane sugar is that, thanks to gentle processing, considerably more molasses than average remains in the final product, giving it its dark color and caramel-like aroma.

Cane sugar is chemically sucrose (a carbohydrate consisting of two sugar molecules), just like beet sugar, so it is not recommended for those who need to monitor their sugar intake. However, as it is natural and free from contaminants and artificial colorants, it is a better choice for everyone else.

It can be used in the same way as beet sugar—in food and drinks, for baking, cooking, or cold dishes. Its more distinctive yet milder taste and aroma lend dishes a special flavor. It is particularly worth replacing beet sugar with cane sugar in dishes where the taste of sugar plays an important role (e.g. meringue, mousse, caramel).

Use the same amount as granulated sugar.
