A guide to choosing the perfect Florida Crystals® Sugar.
Did you know that sugar does more than just sweetening? It also influences the texture, flavor, color and even the shelf life of your culinary masterpieces. While sugar might seem a simple ingredient, not all sugars are created equally.
From baked goods to beverages, there’s a Florida Crystals® Sugar for any recipe, course or occasion.
Organic Raw Cane Sugar
Uses: Versatile, All-Purpose
With a tan or golden hue that sets it apart from your typical granulated white sugar, Florida Crystals® Organic Raw Cane Sugar can be substituted cup-for-cup anywhere a recipe just calls for “sugar.” This less-processed alternative has a delicious hint of molasses. Try it in our:
Organic Light Brown Raw Cane Sugar
Uses: Cooking & Baking
Brown sugar has a low molasses content and a higher moisture than its lighter counterparts do. This gives it a caramel/ nutty taste, rich light brown color and fine, shiny grains with a free-flowing texture.
This type of sugar is ideal for robust cookies, BBQ sauces, savory sides and anywhere you want to build depth of flavor while adding sweetness.
Try it in our:
Organic Powdered Raw Cane Sugar
Uses: Frosting & Icing
This light, ultra-fine, and airy sugar has a smooth texture and delectable taste. Sometimes called “confectioners sugar” as well, its tiny grain size makes it ideal for frostings or icings. It’s also heavenly when used to dust finished products with a fresh snowfall of sweetness.
Try it in our:
Turbinado Cane Sugar
Uses: Beverages & Toppings
Intentionally left more coarse than many other sugars, the amber crystals of Turbinado Cane Sugar give it an almost jewel-like appearance. This crystalline form makes this sugar particularly adept at sweetening hot tea or coffee, as the larger crystals melt more slowly, infusing their sweetness and slight earthy flavor into every sip. It also adds both beauty and a bit of crunch to baked goods when it’s sprinkled atop them.
