Organic Dried Cane Sugar

Organic Dried Cane Sugar is a sweetener made from the juice of organically grown sugarcane. The juice is evaporated and crystallized, leaving behind a less refined sugar than white granulated sugar. It retains some of the molasses from the sugarcane, giving it a slight caramel flavor and a light brown color.

Manufacturers add organic dried cane sugar primarily as a sweetener. Its flavor and color can also contribute to the taste and appearance of foods. It is commonly found in baked goods like cakes and cookies, as well as snack bars, granola, and beverages.

Organic Dried Cane Sugar is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a sweetener. Like other sugars, it provides calories and can contribute to dental caries and other health concerns if consumed in excess. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated sugars and their derivatives. Evidence regarding the health effects of added sugars is extensive and ongoing.
