organic compound commonly known as table sugar and sometimes called Saccharose. It is a disaccharide and consists of glucose and fructose joined together.
Obtained from sugar cane and sugar beets, Sucrose is more expensive than High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) derived from corn.
White refined sugar is the most common form. Brown sugar comes either from the late stages of cane sugar refining (before all of the molasses was taken out) or from coating white refined sugar with a cane molasses syrup.
