Cane Syrup

Cane syrup is a sweetener made from sugarcane. It is produced by boiling the juice extracted from sugarcane stalks, which concentrates the sugars and creates a thick, dark syrup.

Cane syrup is used as a sweetener and to add a distinct flavor to foods. Its thick consistency also helps with texture. It is commonly found in baked goods, candies, and beverages.

Cane syrup is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a sweetener. Like other added sugars, high intake can contribute to excess calorie consumption. JECFA has evaluated cane syrup and established an acceptable daily intake. Evidence on the health effects of added sugars is extensive and ongoing.
