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.
Founder Charlie Steen was a sugarcane farmer in Louisiana, and in 1910 he started a small mill in an attempt to salvage a frozen crop by turning it into something he could sell. The syrup has since become a staple in Southern cooking, and Steen’s has grown to offer a variety of cane syrups, molasses and vinegar.
We test everything we sell. Here’s how we’d use this.
Use this syrup in place of molasses for a lighter color and flavor. Pour it over pancakes and biscuits. Swap it out in gingerbread cookies or other baked goods. Or on the savory side, toss it with root vegetables before roasting for a touch of sweetness.Try it in cocktails such as an Old-Fashioned or any rum and whisky drinks.
