Candied sugar consists of clumped sugar crystals that have been slowly heated. By adding caramel, the candied sugar gets a brown color. More than 300 years ago, candied sugar became world-famous thanks to the Dutch physician Boerhaave. He prescribed it as a remedy for sore throats. The fine candied sugar dissolves quickly and is therefore widely used in tea, cappuccino, and Irish Coffee. Fine brown candied sugar is very suitable for making spicy pastries. The product has an unlimited shelf life and contains no gluten.
