Sugar is a refined white crystalline sweetener made of sucrose. It tastes purely sweet and dissolves readily, with fine crystals that sparkle; it caramelizes and aids browning, stabilizes foams, retains moisture, and feeds yeast in dough. Cooks use it in baking, desserts, beverages, syrups, and candy, typically sold as granulated or superfine forms.\n\nProducers extract and refine it from sugarcane and sugar beet. Industrial refining spread globally, embedding sugar in confectionery and baking traditions across Europe, the Americas, and much of Asia.
