BROWN SUGARS, MOLASSES

Brown—(soft) sugar is the commingling of fine grain white sugar and a film
of molasses (sometimes called
cane sugar syrup). As more and/or darker molasses is present relative to
sugar, the grade of brown sugar
darkens from light, to medium, to dark, with an accompanying deepening of
the caramel and butterscotch
flavors so highly prized in the product. Cane brown sugars are produced
directly from the dark syrups
obtained during the refining process, whereas beet brown sugar is produced
by coating white granulated
sugar with cane molasses.

Light (golden) and dark brown sugars are the two major types commercially
available, as well as in-between
grades.

Golden C® (Light) Brown Sugar
Yellow D® (Dark) Brown Sugar ®Trademarks of California and Hawaiian Sugar

Brownulated—Ò or Free Flowing brown sugar is a lower moisture version of
ordinary brown. Free flowing
brown sugar handles with less clumping and caking—ideal for automated
weighing and scaling operations.

Molasses—is the concentrated, clarified extract of sugar cane. It is the end
product of sugar refining. Forty
to sixty percent of molasses is sucrose and invert sugars, and the remainder
inorganic nonsugars. Open Kettle
Molasses is made by boiling cane juice until a large part of the water is
evaporated. It is sometimes called
unsulfured molasses. Centrifugal molasses results when part or all of the
commercially crystallizable sugar is
recovered from the concentrated cane juice, often in a series of steps where
successive crystallization
"strikes" result in molasses with deepening color and stronger flavor. The
resulting types are known as first
(light and sweet), second (dark, less sweet) and final (very dark, thick and
bitter) molasses. The best grades,
first and second, are used for table syrups, gingerbread and so forth.
Final, or blackstrap molasses is
considered inedible by some, but is used in yeast breads and baked beans by
others. Molasses from sugar
beets is not intended for human consumption.
