Sugars: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category covers a range of sugars used in home cooking and baking, including caster, granulated, demerara, and muscovado varieties. These are primarily sources of energy. When choosing products, the ingredient list is key. For pure sugars, the ingredient list will simply state the type of sugar. However, some products may contain added ingredients. It's worth noting that the UK's Scientific Advisory Committee on Nutrition (SACN) advises that free sugars should not exceed 5% of total dietary energy. While sugars themselves do not contain fibre or salt, it's always good practice to check the nutrition label for these if they are present in composite products. For example, some flavoured sugars or sugar mixes might contain additional salt or other ingredients. Understanding the ingredient list helps you make informed choices about the composition of the products you buy for your kitchen. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
