Difference between Honey and Sugar

Honey vs. Sugar

Honey is a sweet, viscous food substance produced by bees and some related insects. Sugar is the generic name for sweet-tasting, soluble carbohydrates, many of which are used in food.

Similarities between Honey and Sugar

Honey and Sugar have 30 things in common (in Unionpedia): Amylase, Ayurveda, Calorie, Caramelization, Carbohydrate, Corn syrup, Date palm, Diabetes mellitus, Dietary fiber, Enzyme, Fructose, Galactose, Glucose, Glycemic index, Glycerol, India, Maltodextrin, Maltose, Metabolism, Molasses, Monosaccharide, Must, Nutrient, Oligosaccharide, Sucrose, Sugar beet, Sugar substitute, Sugarcane, Supersaturation, Tonne.

Amylase

An amylase is an enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of starch into sugars.

Caramelization

Caramelization is the browning of sugar, a process used extensively in cooking for the resulting sweet nutty flavor and brown color.

Carbohydrate

A carbohydrate is a biomolecule consisting of carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) atoms, usually with a hydrogen–oxygen atom ratio of 2:1 (as in water); in other words, with the empirical formula (where m may be different from n).

Corn syrup

Corn syrup is a food syrup which is made from the starch of corn (called maize in some countries) and contains varying amounts of maltose and higher oligosaccharides, depending on the grade.

Fructose

Fructose, or fruit sugar, is a simple ketonic monosaccharide found in many plants, where it is often bonded to glucose to form the disaccharide sucrose.

Galactose

Galactose (galacto- + -ose, "milk sugar"), sometimes abbreviated Gal, is a monosaccharide sugar that is about as sweet as glucose, and about 30% as sweet as sucrose.

Glucose

Glucose is a simple sugar with the molecular formula C6H12O6.

Glycemic index

The glycemic index or glycaemic index (GI) is a number associated with the carbohydrates in a particular type of food that indicates the effect of these carbohydrates on a person's blood glucose (also called blood sugar) level.

Glycerol

Glycerol (also called glycerine or glycerin; see spelling differences) is a simple polyol compound.

Maltodextrin

Maltodextrin is a polysaccharide that is used as a food additive.

Maltose

Maltose, also known as maltobiose or malt sugar, is a disaccharide formed from two units of glucose joined with an α(1→4) bond. In the isomer isomaltose, the two glucose molecules are joined with an α(1→6) bond. Maltose is the two-unit member of the amylose homologous series, the key structural motif of starch. When beta-amylase breaks down starch, it removes two glucose units at a time, producing maltose. An example of this reaction is found in germinating seeds, which is why it was named after malt. Unlike sucrose, it is a reducing sugar.

Molasses

Molasses, or black treacle (British, for human consumption; known as molasses otherwise), is a viscous product resulting from refining sugarcane or sugar beets into sugar.

Monosaccharide

Monosaccharides (from Greek monos: single, sacchar: sugar), also called simple sugars, are the most basic units of carbohydrates.

Must

Must (from the Latin vinum mustum, "young wine") is freshly crushed fruit juice (usually grape juice) that contains the skins, seeds, and stems of the fruit.

Oligosaccharide

An oligosaccharide (from the Greek ὀλίγος olígos, "a few", and σάκχαρ sácchar, "sugar") is a saccharide polymer containing a small number (typically three to ten) of monosaccharides (simple sugars).
