Processed
Powder
Cane sugar in this form is sucrose crystallised from sugarcane juice—powder grade affects molasses notes and crystal size. White refined sugar is neutral; darker raw sugars taste more caramel-mineral. Use for baking structure, caramel, and sweetening drinks. Weigh for accuracy in pastry. Store dry to prevent clumping.
