sugar crystals
Sweetener in granules
Sugar crystals are the solid, granular form of sugar—what results when a sugar solution evaporates and the molecules arrange into a lattice structure.
The term appears in cooking contexts where crystal size matters: Superfine sugar has smaller crystals that dissolve faster.
Rock candy is sugar crystals grown large for decoration or eating.
