Maple sugar. Maple sugar is a traditional sweetener in Canada and the northeastern United States, prepared from the sap of the maple tree.
A maple syrup production farm is called a sugarbush or sugarwood. Sap is often boiled in a sugar house (also known as a sugar shack, sugar shanty, or cabane Ã  sucre), a building louvered at the top to vent the steam from the boiling sap. Maples are usually tapped beginning at 30 to 40 years of age.
