Sugar is one of the purest ingredients and a natural carbohydrate, found in fruits, vegetables and nuts. All green plants produce sugar (sucrose) through photosynthesis, a natural process that turns sunlight into energy.
Sugar is harvested from sugar beets, root vegetables that grow in cooler climates, and sugar cane plants, tropical grasses that grow up to 20 feet tall. Sugar beet and sugar cane go-to sources for sugar because they have the highest percentage of sucrose of all plants. For both, the refining process removes all impurities and the surrounding plant matter, leaving only pure sucrose.
Sugar Beet Processing
1. Sugar beets are harvested from farms in cooler weather climates, such as Minnesota, Michigan, Wyoming and Idaho and then sent to nearby factories.
• Sweet fact: Sugar beets are harvested seasonally, so factories usually operate around the clock, seven days a week, for four to seven months a year.
2. At factories, sugar beets are washed and sliced into thin strips, called cossettes. The cossettes go through a large tank called a diffuser to extract raw juice.
3. The raw juice is filtered to remove impurities, forming a syrup.
4. Sugar crystalizes from the syrup.
5. The sugar crystals are separated from the syrup in a centrifuge.
6. Crystals are dried.
7. Sugar is packaged and shipped to grocery stores and food manufacturers.
