Cane Refinery Syrup

Cane refinery syrup is a sweetener made from the byproducts of refining sugarcane into granulated sugar. It is a thick, dark syrup with a mild molasses-like flavor.

Manufacturers use cane refinery syrup as a sweetener and to add moisture and color to baked goods, snacks, and processed meats. It is often found in breads, popcorn, and sausages.

Cane refinery syrup is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. Like other sugars, it contributes calories and can impact blood sugar levels. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many sweeteners, but specific evaluations for cane refinery syrup are not widely publicized.
