  2. Cooking weights and measures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooking_weights_and_measures

    * In the UK, teaspoons and tablespoons are formally ⁠ 1 / 160 ⁠ and ⁠ 1 / 40 ⁠ of an imperial pint (3·55 mL and 14·21 mL), respectively. In Canada, a teaspoon is historically 1 ⁄ 6 imperial fluid ounce (4.74 mL) and a tablespoon is 1 ⁄ 2 imperial fl oz (14.21 mL). In both Britain and Canada, cooking utensils commonly come in 5 mL ...

  3. Inverted sugar syrup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_sugar_syrup

    Dense inverted sugar syrup (Trimoline) Inverted sugar syrup is a syrup mixture of the monosaccharides glucose and fructose, made by splitting disaccharide sucrose. This mixture's optical rotation is opposite to that of the original sugar, which is why it is called an invert sugar. Splitting is completed through hydrolytic saccharification.

  4. White sugar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_sugar

    Grains of white sugar White sugar is often sold and used as cubes A bowl of white sugar. White sugar, also called table sugar, granulated sugar, or regular sugar, is a commonly used type of sugar, made either of beet sugar or cane sugar, which has undergone a refining process. It is nearly pure sucrose.

  5. Sugar alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar_alcohol

    Sugar alcohols can be, and often are, produced from renewable resources.Particular feedstocks are starch, cellulose and hemicellulose; the main conversion technologies use H 2 as the reagent: hydrogenolysis, i.e. the cleavage of C−O single bonds, converting polymers to smaller molecules, and hydrogenation of C=O double bonds, converting sugars to sugar alcohols.

  6. Brix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brix

    A sucrose solution with an apparent specific gravity (20°/20 °C) of 1.040 would be 9.99325 °Bx or 9.99359 °P while the representative sugar body, the International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis (ICUMSA), which favours the use of mass fraction, would report the solution strength as 9.99249%. Because the differences between ...

  7. Dextrose equivalent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dextrose_equivalent

    In all glucose polymers, from the native starch to glucose syrup, the molecular chain ends with a reducing sugar, containing a free aldehyde in its linear form. As the starch is hydrolysed, the molecules become shorter and more reducing sugars are present. Therefore, the dextrose equivalent describes the degree of conversion of starch to dextrose.

  8. Sugar industry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar_industry

    Sugar Prices 1962-2022 USD per pound. The sugar industry subsumes the production, processing and marketing of sugars (mostly sucrose and fructose).Globally, about 80% of sugar is extracted from sugar cane, grown predominantly in the tropics, and 20% from sugar beet, grown mostly in temperate climate in North America or Europe.
