Cane sugar

Cane sugar is a sweetener commonly found in many foods and drinks. It comes from sugarcane, a tall tropical grass plant. The sugar is extracted from the sugarcane plant, processed, and refined into the form we recognise on our kitchen shelves.

To make cane sugar, the sugarcane is crushed to extract the juice, which is then boiled and evaporated to concentrate the sugar crystals. These crystals are further processed to remove impurities, resulting in the white or brown sugar we use in cooking and baking. Cane sugar can also be turned into syrup or molasses for different culinary uses.

Cane sugar is a versatile ingredient used in a wide variety of products like cakes, cookies, soft drinks, sauces, and more. It is added to foods not just for its sweetness but also to enhance flavours, provide texture, and help with preservation. You can find cane sugar listed on the labels of many items at the grocery store, such as cereals, jams, yoghurts, and even savoury items like sauces and marinades.
