Maple sugar. Maple sugar is a traditional sweetener in Canada and the northeastern United States, prepared from the sap of the maple tree.
My recipe calls for 1-1/4 cups of maple sugar. A. While grocery store shelves groan with (not particularly good) maple syrup substitutes, there is really no practical substitute for maple sugar. Maple syrup is the sap from maple trees that undergoes evaporation until it is about 30% to 35% water.
