About Caramelized sugar

Caramelized sugar is created by heating granulated sugar until it liquefies and transforms into a rich, amber-colored syrup. This process breaks down sugar molecules, giving the mixture its signature deep flavor and complexity. Widely used in various cuisines, caramelized sugar enhances desserts like crème brûlée, candies, and sauces, and adds depth to savory dishes in Asian and European cooking. Nutritionally, caramelized sugar is essentially pure sucrose, offering quick energy but lacking essential nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, or fiber. While its intense sweetness makes it a versatile ingredient in moderation, excessive intake contributes to added sugars in the diet, potentially increasing risks of weight gain, cavities, and metabolic disorders. Incorporating caramelized sugar responsibly, alongside whole and nutrient-dense foods, can help maintain a balanced approach to indulgence.
