Orange sugar, a flavored sugar, is made from granulated sugar infused with orange zest. The flavor and aroma profile is due to the citrus addition. It is not a unique type of sugar, but a flavored variant created by infusing standard sugar with citrus peels.

Hibiscus, particularly the *Hibiscus sabdariffa* species known as roselle, has been used for centuries in beverages like agua fresca and tea. Hibiscus sugar captures the bright, tangy flavor of these dried flowers in a sweetened form, creating a stunning pink or red-hued ingredient for both sweet and savory applications.
