What it is
Organic crystallized cane juice is a sweetener made from the juice of organically grown sugarcane. The juice is heated and then allowed to crystallize, retaining some of the natural molasses content which gives it a light brown color and a subtle caramel flavor.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use it primarily as a sweetener in a variety of food products. Its flavor and color can also contribute to the overall taste and appearance of baked goods, jams, and other sweet treats.
Health notes
Organic crystallized cane juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a sweetener. Like other sugars, excessive consumption can contribute to increased calorie intake. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated it, and it is considered a form of sucrose.
