What are sugar cubes?
Sugar cubes are cute little cubes of sugar, often sold in boxes, and thought more convenient than using standard granulated sugar because they can be picked up by hand, and hold their form until mixed into liquids. They also provide an excellent way to control sugar consumption since the amount is always the same in one cube. Each cube is approximately equal to one and a half teaspoons of sugar and has approximately 25 calories. This can sometimes vary; some may be equal to one teaspoon and contain about 15 calories.
