Molasses and Brown Sugar

Molasses is concentrated sugar cane juice. Sulfured molasses is a byproduct of sugar refining. It is the product that remains after most of the sugar has been extracted from cane juice. Unsulfured molasses is not a byproduct but a specially manufactured sugar product. Its taste is less bitter than that of sulfured molasses. Blackstrap molasses is the final stage of the refining process, with less than half the sugar of regular molasses and a very strong taste.
