What it is

Raw cane sugar invert syrup is a liquid sweetener made from raw cane sugar. It is produced by breaking down sucrose into its component parts, glucose and fructose, through a process called hydrolysis. This results in a syrup that is sweeter and more resistant to crystallization than regular sugar.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use invert syrup as a sweetener and to improve moisture and texture in baked goods and confectionery. Its liquid form and resistance to crystallization make it useful in candies, frostings, and some beverages.

Health notes

In the US, invert sugar is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA as a food ingredient. Like other sugars, excessive consumption can contribute to increased calorie intake. JECFA has evaluated invert sugar and set an acceptable daily intake.
