Does white sugar and brown sugar come from the same sugar cane and is molasses formed somewhere in this process?
as cane sugar mollasses. In either case,though, molasses is a byproduct of sugar production… White sugar is fully refined sugar–pure sucrose crystals. It doesn’t matter whether it somes from beets or cane–the crystals are chemically identical. Brown sugar is a sucrose sugar product with a distinctive brown color due to the presence of molasses. It is either an unrefined or partially refined soft sugar consisting of sugar crystals with some residual molasses content or produced by the addition of molasses to refined white sugar.
