What is "white sugar"?
White sugar, also known as granulated sugar or table sugar, is a common sweetener made from refined sugarcane or sugar beet. It consists of fine, granulated crystals and is widely used in cooking, baking, and beverage sweetening. White sugar is versatile and dissolves easily, making it a popular choice for sweetening coffee, tea, and other beverages, as well as for adding sweetness and texture to baked goods and desserts. While it provides a simple source of quick energy, it is also high in calories and lacks nutritional value beyond its carbohydrate content.
Examples
