A lot.
Oh, what a lovely question! A single sugar cane stalk contains about 10-15% sucrose, which is the natural sugar found in it. Isn't that just fascinating? Nature has a way of providing us with sweetness in the most beautiful forms.
Honey does contain sugar: fructose and maltose if I remember correctly but not sucrose (the kind of sugar we get from sugar cane and that you buy as sugar). Fructose etc are just as fattening and tooth destroying as sucrose. It is however sweeter so if you are adding it for sweetness add about half as much honey as you would cane sugar. In some recipes sugar is there for structure so honey being liquid may not be suitable
On average, it takes about 10-15 tons of sugar cane to produce 1 ton of sugar. This ratio can vary depending on factors such as the sugar content of the cane and the efficiency of the extraction process. The sugar cane is crushed to extract the juice, which is then processed and refined into sugar through various stages such as clarification, evaporation, and crystallization.
Sugar Cane is a plant. It is one of the most important crops in Hawaii, as well as much of Central America, and some of the Caribbean. It is a tall, tough plant that used to be harvested by hand with machetes. Now it is harvested by machinery. In sugar growing areas pieces of Cane are often sucked or chewed on much like peppermint sticks. HarvestingSugar cane is harvested by chopping down the stems just above ground level, leaving the roots so that it regrows in time for the next crop. Harvest times tend to be during the dry season from there the cane is taken to the mill where the sap containing the sugar is extracted
yesMolasses is the dark, sweet, syrupy byproduct made during the extraction of sugars from sugarcane and sugar beets.Molasses can vary in color, sweetness, and nutritional content depending on the variety or how much sugar has been extracted.
On average, sugarcane contains about 10-15% sucrose, which is the main type of sugar found in the plant. The sugar content can vary depending on factors such as the variety of sugarcane, climate conditions, and time of harvest.
On average, one kilogram of sugar contains around 1.7 kilograms of sugar cane from which it is extracted. Sugar cane is primarily composed of water and sugar, so extracting 1 kilogram of sugar often requires processing a larger amount of sugar cane.
The basic processSugar cane must be crushed to extract the juice. The crushing process must break up the hard nodes of the cane and flatten the stems. The juice is collected, filtered and sometimes treated and then boiled to drive off the excess water. The dried cane residue (bagasse) is often used as fuel for this process. The remaining liquid is allowed to set into a solid mass known as jaggery, gur, chancaca or panela.
Tums typically contain minimal amounts of sugar, primarily in the form of sucrose, as they are designed primarily for antacid use. The exact sugar content can vary by flavor and formulation, but most Tums varieties contain around 1 to 2 grams of sugar per tablet. Always check the packaging for specific nutritional information, as formulations may differ.

Sugarcane is not made from anything since it is a type of grass. Sugarcane grows in stalks that are jointed and very fibrous. Sucrose is extracted from sugarcane stalks and is fermented to make ethanol alcohol.
