White sugar (for syrup)

Description

White sugar for syrup is a finely granulated, crystalline sugar with a pure, colorless appearance and a neutral sweet taste, which, when dissolved, creates a clear, shiny syrup without altering the aroma. Due to its quick dissolving properties and predictable sweetness, it is perfect for making simple syrups, drinks, glazes, jams, desserts, and as a base for glazes and sauces. Nutritionally, it mainly provides energy—about 4 kcal per gram—and contains no significant vitamins or minerals, so it is advisable to use it in moderation; it causes a rapid increase in blood glucose levels, which can be desirable in cases of sudden energy needs, but in excess, it contributes to weight gain and metabolic issues. Store in a dry, cool place in an airtight container, away from strong odors and moisture, to prevent clumping and loss of quality.
