Syrup
White Rice Syrup
A tier
White rice syrup is the paler, cleaner cousin: polished rice, less bran toast, almost colourless to gold, used when a formulator wants rice-syrup binding without brown colour. Sweetness is still mild and malt-leaning. Use it in pale confections. It will not give you brown-rice flavour. Some "rice syrup" grocery bottles are this grade.

History
Confectioners asked for white rice syrup to bind without dyeing the candy.
Pale rice syrup entered vegan marshmallow and bar formulas.
White rice syrup stayed the invisible binder; brown kept the health-food look.
