How is this different from table cane sugar?

I do not know how this differs from table cane sugar. What I do know is that it is plain corn syrup, like the KARO brand you find in food stores. The big difference is the price. I went with the 7 lb. large canister of Dextrose Powder I found on Amazon.com. I am an Amazon Prime member so the shipping was free. Glucose is made from dextrose.I hope that helps.

Table cane sugar is sucrose. Sucrose is a two sugar compound of glucose and fructose. Glucose is single sugar molecule sometimes referred to as dextrose. There are different levels of "dextrose equivalents" of glucose products. I would love to know what the DE of this product is. The product is not very sweet tasting and I have used it to make ice creams and sorbets with success so I am guessing it has a DE of about 20-30 which is low. This provides freezing point depression making the frozen treats smooth and less crystalline - also more flavorful.

The major difference that Glucose is a liquid or inverted sugar. Very thick with a lower water content than corn syrup. It is primarily used in candy making, such as caramels. It inhibits crystallization of sugar during the cooking process. I do not recommend using in every day baking. Only when the recipe calls for it.

It's made with conventional cane sugar and also uses stevia (which ruins the flavor, in my opinion).

Read the label and do the research. Stevia is a well known sugar substitute. Sweet taste but it is not sugar cane. Stevia is on the label.

I was kind of confused by that as well. It certainly taste the same to me. The label has changed but the taste didn't change from the old label. I had one of each and I checked ;-). I actually asked my contact at Shadow Beverages and the only change was from high fructose corn syrup to cane sugar. Which I like. They are changing the label yet to reflect it.

I do not know if cane sugar is present in this broth. I just know it has a very strong flavor and and I do not like it.

There is no sugar added.....Only natural sugar from Coconut, it tastes like coconut juice from a coconut you chopped off a tree, broke top and drank from it. The difference is, this is coconut water, they call it juice. There is nothing added, just young coconut juice. Hope this was helpful!

It is a real sugar from fruit. It famous in Thai country. I love it because it easy to use. Normally it come with big bar. Hard to melt if you bought from Thai.

It tastes pretty much like sugar but way less sweet. I mix it in a glass of water and barely taste it. I've put it in my tea also, no taste difference really. Also it dissolves very well, no clumps whatsoever. Now don't freak out about the smell! When you put your nose to the container it has a not so nice smell, but that smell isn't there as a taste at all. I now use Dr Best's Best D-Ribose, which is less expensive and it tastes perfectly fine too.

From the ingredients in the product obviously, whether that's sugars (glucose, fructose, surcrose etc) or starches.Just because it says sugar doesn't always mean the same sugar that is table sugar. It's Carbohydrate. So it can be any carbohydrate, simple or complex.

No it is not "glucose". The listed ingredient on the package is "corn syrup". They are both invert sugars -- so don't recrystallize; while corn syrup cotains glucose, it usually contains other things as well. This is over priced corn syrup.

White is the equivalent to table sugar, golden is the equivalent to brown sugar. I'm not sure on the process. This refers to taste. And the taste of both are delicious!

Well, I didn't really know so I went and looked at the label since I still have unopened bottles. It just says "Sugar". It doesn't say "high fructose or corn syrup". As I don't believe this is a product of the US, you would have to consider the labeling laws of the country of production to determine if they are trying to mislabel this.

Yes. It is regular sugar. It is made with sugar beets instead of sugar cane.

I'm not sure yet; I'm still doing some research on beet juice sugar. I know it has the same amount of calories as cane sugar, but know for a fact that beet juice sugar is easier on your digestive system.

I'm not exactly sure and they are rough cut so it would vary. The main thing is that this sugar is really good. I always get it from amazon. We think its worth the wait. The natural brown ones are best.

I think you'll need less of it, personally. I find it sweeter than regular sugar. Perhaps, 1 tsp of regular sugar equals 1/2-1/4 tsp coconut sugar. But, I've been off white sugar for a number of years. I was using Stevia-cane before I tried this and I prefer the coconut sugar taste and the fact that less is needed for me.

It is made from the flower of the coconut tree....it would be a natural sugar that is found in that part of the tree. It is not made from cane or beets like processed white sugar. It relies on the sweetness just like stevia...from the plant.
