单晶白冰糖

Lump Sugar, often referred to as rock sugar or crystal sugar in various cultures, is a type of sugar that comes in solid, hard pieces rather than the granulated form we're used to. Typically clearer and less processed than regular table sugar, lump sugar is made by allowing sugar cane juice or sugar beet juice to crystallize slowly. This slow crystallization process results in larger, clear crystals or lumps that dissolve slowly, making it ideal for use in tea, coffee, or in cooking where a gradual release of sweetness is desired.

Lump sugar is particularly favored in Asian cuisines for its subtle sweetness and its ability to enhance the flavor of dishes without overwhelming them. It's commonly used in traditional recipes like soups, sauces, and desserts, where its slow-dissolving nature can add a refined sweetness. Additionally, it's believed to have less of an impact on blood sugar levels compared to refined sugar due to its slower dissolution rate, although moderation is still key. Its aesthetic appeal, with its clear, sometimes golden-hued crystals, also makes it a popular choice for sweetening beverages in a visually pleasing manner.
