How Beet Sugar is Made-the Basic Story. White beet sugar is made from the beets in a single process, rather than the two steps involved with cane sugar.ecause the beets have come from the ground they are much dirtier than sugar cane and have to be thoroughly washed and separated from any remaining beet leaves, stones and other trash material before processing. Extraction. The processing starts by slicing the beets into thin chips.
The bigger discrepancy seems to be with brown sugar made from beets. Brown sugar made from beet sugar has molasses added to the refined white sugar. The molasses byproduct from beet sugar production is sold as an addition to animal feed and not used in food for human consumption.With cane sugar the brown sugar may be a less refined product as it a step in the production process.ugar beets are grown commercially in twelve states, as a summer crop in northern states like Michigan and Minnesota and as a winter crop in warmer climates like California. Sugar cane is only grown commercially in four states: Florida, Texas, Louisiana, and Hawaii.
