Division Composition of the sugar

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

Because the syrup is 100 % derived from sugar beet/cane, it contains hardly any carbohydrates apart from sucrose and invert sugar. The sugar content is at least 70 % (see also characteristics referred to under 3.5). This also distinguishes the syrup from molasses, the sugar content of which is less than 68 %.
