With the rise of islam, egypt became the world's great sugar laboratory. the kind of sugar easiest to produce from cane is dark—the color comes from molasses, which also makes that form of sugar spicy and even bitter. what we call molasses is just a natural part of the first grinding of sugar cane into syrup. sugar refiners drain out the dark molasses to use by itself and are left with relatively white sugar. the noble and wealthy, who could afford sugar, wanted it to be as pure, sweet, and white as possible. the egyptians figured out how to meet that need.

"egypt became the world's great sugar laboratory"
"the kind of sugar easiest to produce from cane is dark"
"drain out the dark molasses to use by itself"
"wanted it to be as pure, sweet, and white as possible"
