Demerara sugar (recipes)


This pale-coloured and mild-tasting raw cane sugar is named after its place of origin - Demerara, in Guyana - but it' s now imported from various other places such as Jamaica, Malawi and Mauritius. It has large sparkling golden crystals and a crunchy texture.Traditionally used to sweeten coffee, it' s perfect for sprinkling but can also be used for baking, particularly in things that need extra crunchiness such as crumbles, cheesecake bases, flapjacks and biscuits. You can also buy fine demerara sugar, which is better for cake baking. Keep it stored in an airtight container somewhere cool and dry to prevent the crystals from going hard.
