Abstract
PURPOSE: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a sugar crystal-containing liquid with good reproducibility, wherein crystallization is enhanced, it is unnecessary to add seed crystals which may affect the number of grains and a size of the crystals, and graining conditions are stable.CONSTITUTION: The present invention is a method for producing a sugar crystal-containing liquid, wherein the method comprises steps of preparing a liquid supersaturated with sugar; and applying a shearing force to the liquid, characterized in that the step of applying the shearing force comprises exerting a pressure higher than atmospheric pressure on the liquid to make the liquid pass through a narrow space.
