Sugar Slurry is a concentrated aqueous solution of sucrose, prepared by dissolving refined sugar in water to create a viscous, pumpable syrup. It is used extensively in food, beverage, and industrial applications where liquid sweeteners are preferred over granulated sugar for ease of mixing, consistency, and handling. Sugar slurry ensures uniform sweetness and rapid dissolution in various processes and formulations.
