This is an amorphous crystal-type sugar obtained by supersaturation of the highly concentrated sugarcane syrup (90º Brix to 92º Brix) under local atmospheric pressure conditions.. The difference between the muscovado and the crystal white sugar is the fact the muscovado is not subjected to the syrup clarification process. (for instance, by using the sulfate and calcium hydroxide).
