Natural Evaporated Cane Sugar

Natural Evaporated Cane Sugar is a type of sugar made from the juice of sugar cane. The juice is heated and evaporated, leaving behind sugar crystals. It is less processed than refined white sugar and retains some of the natural molasses content.

Manufacturers use Natural Evaporated Cane Sugar primarily as a sweetener. Its slightly caramel-like flavor can add depth to baked goods. It is commonly found in cookies, biscuits, granola bars, and some chocolate products.

Natural Evaporated Cane Sugar is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a sweetener. Like other sugars, excessive consumption can contribute to health issues such as weight gain and dental cavities. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated sugars, and while they have established acceptable daily intakes for some sweeteners, the focus for added sugars is on limiting overall intake.
