Make no bones about it!
We can guarantee no animals are in our sugar pastes.
We did not want to use a product that had used animals in it’s process, plus of course we believe beauty does need to cost the earth! We use British sugar, and it is made from sugar beet. Why? Because sugar beet sugar doesn’t need bone char when it is being made, who knew?
We are living in an age where we care much more about our planet and what goes into products we purchase. All of us at Sugarflick care too of course and sugarcane sugar is often made white by using bone char. Sugar made with British sugar beet doesn’t need bone char, make no bones about it, it’s animal-free. It is worth noting that there are no bones left in those kinds of sugar, but animal bones are involved in their production.
White table sugar can come from two plants: sugarcane or sugar beets. But when you buy a bag of sugar, you usually can’t tell which plant it came from. That’s because both sugarcane and sugar beets make the same kind of sugar. It’s called sucrose, and it’s what makes sugar sweet.
Sucrose is found in nature, in things like honey, dates, and sap from sugar maple trees. But sugarcane and sugar beets have the most. When sugar is made, it goes through a process to make it pure and white. During this process, it doesn’t matter which plant it came from. The important thing is getting the sucrose out of the plant and animals do not have to be involved!
Sweet!
