Abstract
The invention relates to a method the preparation of an inverted sugar product, called high test molasses, using novel reaction parameters. More particularly it relates to the preparation of high-test molasses using an acid wherein the loss of sugar due to use of acid and high temperature as in conventional method is eliminated.
Claims11
A method for the preparation of high test molasses from sugarcane or sugar beet juice comprising:
- (a) concentrating said juice by evaporation to contain a higher amount of sucrose forming a concentrated syrup;
- (b) adding a desired amount of organic acid to said syrup creating a reaction mixture;
- and
- (c) treating said reaction mixture at an effective temperature for about 2 to about 3 hours to cause inversion of sucrose to inverted sugar forming a high test molasses product, wherein the high test molasses product has a pH of about 3.
