What is "maple sugar"?
Maple sugar is a sweetener made from the sap of sugar maple trees. It is produced by boiling down the maple sap until most of the water evaporates, leaving behind concentrated sugar crystals. Maple sugar has a distinctive caramel-like flavor with hints of maple, making it a popular natural sweetener in cooking and baking. It can be used as a substitute for granulated sugar in various recipes, adding a unique flavor and sweetness. Maple sugar is often used in desserts, sauces, glazes, and marinades, as well as in beverages like coffee and tea. It is also commonly used as a topping for pancakes, waffles, and oatmeal, adding a delicious maple flavor.
