All that sugar
Types of Sugar

Two basic types of sugar
Natural sugar- occurs naturally in foods. Example- glucose (part of blood in part of your body), fructose (found in ripe fruits), honey
Refined sugar- most common names are table sugar and sucrose
MOLECULE OF CHEMICALS ARRANGED IN AN EVEN SHAPE (CRYSTAL)
Table sugar
CRYSTALIZED FROM THE JUICE OF THE SUGARCANE PLANT OR THE SUGAR BEET.
Table Sugar
TABLE SUGAR THAT HAS BEEN GROUND TO MAKE IT FINE AND POWDERY.

THICK BROWN SYRUP LEFT OVER AFTER MAKING SUGAR FROM THE SUGAR CANE
Molasses
MIXTURE OF WHITE SUGAR AND MOLASSES
Brown Sugar
THICK, SWEET, AND MADE FROM CORNSTARCH
Corn Syrup
MADE FROM DISSOLVING SUGAR IN A LIQUID
Crystalline Candies
What is the boiling point of a sugar solution?
HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT THAN BOILING POINT OF WATER?
The boiling point of a sugar solution is 234-240 degrees
farenheit
Boiling point increases according to the degree of concentration of
the item you are boiling
AMOUNT OF COMPOUND (SUGAR) DISSOLVED IN A SPECIFIC AMOUNT OF
LIQUIDLESS WATER GREATER CONCENTRATION

Interfering Agents used to slow down crystal formation

TEMPERATURE OF SUGAR SOLUTION WHEN STIRRED AND THE AMOUNT IT IS
STIRRED
What else affects crystal formation?
Hints when making candy
After the solution is removed from heat don’t stir it until it cools to 104-108 degrees Farenheit
You must continue to stir until Crystalization is complete
What is the perfect looking candy?
Mixture is dull in colorMixture is formSmoothGlassy look
