What is Raw Cane Sugar?
Raw cane sugar is made from the sugarcane plant (Saccharum officinarum), a tropical grass native to East Asia. Unlike white refined sugar, raw cane sugar contains traces of naturally occurring molasses, giving it its color and characteristic flavor.
There are several types of cane sugar: highly refined white sugar, light brown raw cane sugar (refined once, low in molasses), and unrefined whole cane sugar, which retains a higher molasses content.
Botanical Information
Sugarcane grows in tropical and subtropical climates. The plant reaches 3 to 6 meters in height and thrives at temperatures between 25–30°C with sufficient water. To prevent root damage from standing water, sugarcane is often cultivated on raised beds or hills for natural drainage. Growth slows at cooler temperatures and stops entirely below 15°C.
Today, sugarcane is grown in many countries including India, Brazil, Australia, and South Africa. The production of cane sugar requires considerable effort and care.
How Raw Cane Sugar is Made
Sugarcane contains about 10–20% sucrose. After harvesting, the cane is stripped of its leaves and chopped into small pieces. These are pressed to extract the juice, which is then filtered, concentrated, and crystallized. The resulting raw cane sugar retains a portion of its natural molasses content.
Storage Instructions
Like all spices and herbs, sugar should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Glass jars with screw-top lids are ideal, being both environmentally friendly and easy to clean. When stored properly, sugar maintains its consistency and quality for long periods.
