What it is

Invert cane syrup is a liquid sweetener made from sugar cane. It is produced by breaking down sucrose (table sugar) into its component parts: glucose and fructose. This process, called inversion, can be done using heat and acid or enzymes.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use invert cane syrup as a sweetener and to improve moisture and texture in baked goods. It helps prevent sugar crystallization, making products softer and fresher for longer. It is commonly found in baked goods like pastries, muffins, and bars, as well as in candies and some beverages.

Health notes

In the US, invert cane syrup is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. Like other sugars, it provides calories and can contribute to health issues if consumed in excess. The WHO has stated that added sugars should be reduced in the diet. JECFA has evaluated invert sugar and set an acceptable daily intake.

Allergen info

Invert cane syrup is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
