How can I tell if my sugar is beet or cane?? to Top

Manufacturers do not always mention the source of the sugar on the label. This is not required since cane and beet sugar are identical. You can feel confident that recipes calling for sugar will work just as well with one or the other. However, if you do not want to know the source of a particular brand of sugar, your best bet is to contact the manufacturer or distributor.
