Sugarcane molasses is a thick, syrupy byproduct of refining sugarcane into table sugar. Through several boilings and crystal extraction steps, various grades of molasses with unique flavors, colors, and nutritional profiles are produced. When used as an ingredient, molasses imparts a rich sweetness and browning properties to foods. It also serves as a cost-effective natural sweetener in its own right with applications across industries.

How Molasses is Made

Molasses is derived from crushing sugarcane to extract the juice, followed by boiling and crystallization to produce refined sugar. The leftover syrup is molasses. Here are the key production steps:

Sugarcane Crushing: Large mills shred and press fresh sugarcane to squeeze out the juice containing sucrose sugar.

Clarification – The cane juice is heated and lime added to raise the pH. This causes impurities like plant fibers to coagulate so they can be skimmed off, clarifying the juice.

Evaporation: The clarified juice is concentrated by boiling off water to produce a viscous syrup. This allows more efficient crystallization.

Crystallization:  The syrup undergoes vacuum pan boiling to initiate sucrose crystal formation. The crystals are then centrifuged out.

Repeated Crystallization: The remaining syrup is re-boiled and recrystallized up to three times to remove the most sugar possible.

Separation: After final crystallization, the remaining dark, viscous molasses is separated from the sugar crystals.

Storage:  The molasses is transferred to storage tanks before packaging.
