Christophsian sugar

Christophsian sugar was a caramelized-sugar mix that was inspired by the crystalline forests of^[1] the planet^[2] Christophsis. The multipurpose sweetener consisted of light brown sugar crystals that could add a hint of citrus flavor and warm cooking spice to many foodstuffs.^[1]

The Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs claimed that it was addictive; he wrote that he personally could not resist adding the sugar to popped grains, freshly-toasted mealbread, or a cup of caf.^[1] In 34 ABY,^[3] he published his cookbook The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook that included a recipe for Christophian sugar in which he compared its versatility to his Nerfsteak Seasoning. The book also contained recipes for Moogan Tea and sweet-sand cookies that both used the sugar as a topping.^[1]

Behind the scenes

In the current Star Wars canon, Christophsian sugar was included as a recipe in the 2019 cookbook Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook, which was written by Marc Sumerak and Chelsea Monroe-Cassel with photography by Ted Thomas. The out-of-universe recipe uses the caramelization process and is made with the ingredients sugar, water, orange extract, and vanilla extract.^[1]

Christophsian sugar originated in the Star Wars Legends continuity, where it was introduced in the 2009 Hyperspace exclusive article "Dining at Dex's," which was written by Gregory Walker.^[4]
