beet sugar
Tuber-derived sucrose
Beet sugar is sugar extracted from sugar beets, as opposed to cane sugar derived from sugarcane.
The two are chemically identical—both pure sucrose—and indistinguishable in cooking and baking.
Sugar beets are grown in temperate climates, making beet sugar an important product in regions too cold for sugarcane cultivation.
Most sugar sold in the United States comes from beet sugar.
