Steen's Cane Syrup
This sweet, rich syrup is a staple in Southern cooking and is our go-to for a lighter but still flavorful alternative to molasses. Steen’s is made from 100% pure cane syrup with nothing added or extracted. Whereas molasses is a by-product of sugar refining, cane syrup is made from raw pressed cane juice that’s boiled down. Lighter in both color and flavor compared to molasses, this thick syrup makes a great option for those looking for the heady essence of molasses without the bitterness and acidity. Perfect for serving alongside biscuits or in any recipes that call for molasses.
Steen's Syrup Dark Molasses
Steen’s is a 4th-generation family company making cane sugar products that became a household staple for Southern Louisiana families in the 1950s. Their dark unsulphured molasses is rich and sweet with an almost tangy flavor—with much more complexity than what you can find in the grocery store. Unlike robust or black strap molasses, it has very little bitterness and an almost smoky flavor. Steen’s molasses works just as well in sweet classics like gingerbread cookies and cake as it does in savory applications like barbecue sauces.
India Tree Demerara Sugar
Mild with hints of caramel sauce and toffee, what we love about this sugar is that it doesn’t read just as sweet. This partially refined sugar comes from the sugarcane juice made during the plant’s first press. Once it evaporates, it leaves large, sparkly crystals behind. The sugar is a light caramel brown (since it retains some of the original molasses), but just enough so that it doesn’t clump heavily like typical brown sugar or even other demeraras. It has a coarse texture with a pleasant light crunch to it, making it a lovely topping for and addition to beverages and baked goods.
India Tree Superfine Caster Sugar
Specially formulated for baking, superfine caster sugar has a smaller, more delicate grain than regular white sugar, which makes it much easier to incorporate into recipes. The sugar crystals dissolve faster because of their size, so it might read as a little sweeter than standard sugar to some because of how fast it melts on the tongue. Although this kind of sugar is fairly available in grocery stores, we like this one best for its high quality and simple packaging, which makes it easy to pour into the jar or canister of your choice. This really is a fantastic upgrade to your standard plain white sugar.
India Tree Dark Muscovado Sugar
Conventional brown sugar is simply white, refined sugar moistened with molasses. On the other hand, raw muscovado sugar has a rich, earthy and almost smoky flavor, as well as a high molasses content. India Tree’s moist-textured variety, processed in Mauritius, can be substituted for dark brown sugar in any recipe (we tested this) or used to add extra flavor to coffee, tea or cocktails (perfect in an Old Fashioned).

Just Panela Granulated Panela Sugar
Here at Milk Street we have rediscovered more flavorful pantry items including flours, vinegars, oils, and salts. At the top of our list, however, is sugar. This raw, unrefined sugar from Colombia packs a complex, earthy flavor that’s terrific in everything from tea, coffee and cocktails to oatmeal or grapefruit. The bittersweet flavor also does well in savory applications, like a pot of Mexican beans or tomato-based pasta sauces. It will become your sugar bowl standard.
Lars Pearl Sugar
Lars’ Own Swedish pearl sugar is a hard, crystalline garnishing sugar ideal for sprinkling over a broad array of baked goods. It won’t melt in the oven but rather remains crisp and white to provide textural and visual contrast. It’s an essential touch on Sweden’s famous cardamom buns, kardemummabullar, and can be used similar for all manner of sweet breads and buns—just brush with egg white and top with pearl sugar before baking. For crunchy texture, we like it dusted over muffins, bread pudding, and desserts such as our Marmalade Bundt Cake with Crystallized Ginger. Pearl sugar is also great for visual contrast on our Brazilian Chocolate Fudge Candies (Brigadeiros).
Crown Maple Maple Pearl's
Fold Maple Pearls into Buttermilk Biscuits or scones for a maple-flavored twist on the classics, or add to cookie recipes such as our rich Rye Chocolate Chip Cookies; they're also easy to crush or grind into granulated maple sugar for any recipe. At breakfast, we like to sprinkle Maple Pearls over oatmeal in place of maple syrup for added texture, especially with buttery and nutty flavors—try them with Browned Butter Apple Oatmeal. Or add to crunchy salads for a sweet accent; the maple flavor complements the crunchy candied pecans perfectly in our Apple and Fennel Salad with Candied Pecans.
