Tasting Notes

Demerara sugar is traditionally used in baking. Its coarse grain enables it to develop crunchy toppings and it is used to increase the spread in biscuits, cookies, cakes, breakfast cereals and bars. Particularly popular applications include shortbreads, flapjacks and crumbles.; Demerara sugar is also used as a table sugar because its mellow notes perfectly complement coffee's bitter flavor while its coarse texture makes it ideal for sprinkling over porridge, fruit and desserts. For the latter reason, it is also an ingredient in dark spirit cocktails, most notably the mojito.; It can be used to produce some preserves as well.
