cane sugar
Crystallized stalk extract
Cane sugar is sugar derived from sugarcane, as opposed to beet sugar or other sources.
The distinction matters mainly to those who consider cane sugar superior for baking or candy-making: The recipe calls for pure cane sugar.
Most table sugar sold without specification is cane sugar or a blend.
