Demerara sugar is a type of unrefined cane sugar with large, golden-brown crystals and a natural caramel flavor. It is named after the Demerara region in Guyana, where it was originally produced. Unlike white sugar, which undergoes extensive processing and refining, demerara sugar is minimally processed, with only the surface molasses removed during the production process. This gives it a slightly sticky texture and a rich, molasses-like flavor. Demerara sugar is commonly used as a sweetener in coffee, tea, and cocktails, as well as in baking and dessert recipes where its caramel flavor and crunchy texture can add depth and complexity. It is also popular for sprinkling over baked goods like muffins, cookies, and crumbles to add a subtle sweetness and decorative touch.
