When you think of sugar you probably imagine a bowl of sparkling
white crystals. We know sugar as the substance which sweetens food.
But have you ever wanted to know:
- What sugar is?
- Where does sugar come from?
- What do we use it for?
The Story of Sugar is described in this series of pages. It
looks at the history, geography, technology and science of table
sugar. Suggestions are given in the Project Notes to help you put
together your own project on sugar.
