The little grains you use to sweeten your food every day have an amazing story to tell. Like many other foods, sugar has a fascinating history, spanning centuries, continents and cultures.

This book describes the journey sugar has taken, from the use of sugarcane in ancient India to the staple sweetener in our cupboards today.
Other topics covered are health aspects of sugar, how it is produced, its chemical properties and how it is traded around the world.
