United Sugars Coarse Granulated Sugar

United Sugars Coarse Granulated Sugar is made by crystallizing purified and filtered thick syrup removed from sugar beets or sugarcane. It is then dried and screened to produce a coarse grain sugar. It is ideal for pneumatic handling. It provides greater resistance to caking in less than ideal storage conditions. Customers who pulverize sugar for use in their end product will find marked improvement in yield due to the sugar’s crystal surface area and flow characteristics. Also, due to the reduced surface area, Coarse Sugar is useful to minimize the use of expensive coating ingredients. It is white in color and has sucrose content of no less than 99.85 percent.
