Sugar byproducts are the materials produced during the processing of sugarcane or sugar beets. When sugar is extracted, several leftover substances are created, such as molasses, bagasse, and filter cake. These byproducts can be used in various ways, including animal feed, biofuel production, and even in the food industry for flavoring. One of the most common sugar byproducts is molasses, a thick syrup that contains vitamins and minerals. It is often used in baking and cooking, adding a rich flavor to recipes. Another byproduct, bagasse, is the fibrous material left after juice extraction, which can be used to make paper or as a renewable energy source.
