Using golden sugar in Marmalade

Asked on 19 Jan 2018 by crap cook

I have made marmalade for many years using the tinned orange puree now I shall make from fresh oranges. The recipe calls for white preserving sugar but I dont use white sugar and always have used golden raw cane sugar and a little demarera which I think deepens the flavour.
With Delias seville orange recipe must I use white preserving sugar or will my usual golden raw cane workwork.~?

Hello,

Yes you can use your usual golden sugar. Delia has marmalade recipes using golden sugar; we just used preserving sugar for the cookery school, as it’s easier to see that all of the granules have dissolved before boiling.

Kind regards
