- Flavor enhancer: This wonderful, natural, inexpensive flavor enhancer masks bitter notes, enhances flavors, blends and rounds out herb and spice notes. It is the secret ingredient that adds that ‘Je ne sais quoi’ that changes a good recipe to a superb recipe.
- Colorant: A natural colorant of great stability, its liquid consistency eliminates lumping and clumping, making it an ideal substitute for brown sugar, artificial brown color, cocoa powder, butterscotch, caramel etc.
- Sweetener: In confectionary products and baked goods, in addition to providing flavor and color, the high invert sugar content of the molasses helps limit crystallization of the sugars. Humectant: It prolongs the shelf life of baked goods by retaining moisture.
- Leavening agent: The natural acids in molasses react with baking soda to evolve gas, enhancing the spring and texture of baked goods.
