Demerara Sugar
Demerara sugar is a light brown, minimally refined sugar with large, sparkling crystals and a rich caramel flavor. It originates from sugarcane and retains some of the natural molasses, giving it a distinct taste and texture. Demerara sugar is often used as a sweetener for beverages like coffee and tea, as well as a topping for baked goods, cereals, and desserts due to its crunchy texture and golden appearance. It is a healthier alternative to highly processed white sugar, as it retains more minerals such as calcium, potassium, and iron.
