Carib Burnt Sugar

Q: Can this be used in a burnt sugar cake that call for 1/3 cup burnt sugar syrup?

I cannot answer this question -- suggest you question the seller of the product

Q: does this work for a creme brulee topping?

No, unless you prefer your creme brulee incinerated. On creme brulee, the idea is to carmelize the sugars just to the point of a rich carmel color (which goes along, not surprisingly, with a rich carmel flavor. This burnt sugar has been carmelized much more deeply, to a dark reddish-brown to black color and it's purpose is to give a strongly roasted flavor, similar to, but not the same as, dark roasted coffee or unsweetened chocolate. In Jamaican black cake, it's a balance to molasses sweetness and gives the cake it's very dark color. It can also be used as a darkening an flavoring agent in gravies, if your pan drippings are not sufficiently browned. The best bet for creme brullee is a culinary torch, such as this one https://www.amazon.com/Blow-Torch-Refillable-Professional-Adjustable/dp/B01G3MZWBU/ref=pd_lpo_vtph_79_bs_tr_t_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=XHQPNQJQC519ZYA131VX No endorsement implied, as I've never used it. It's just meant as an example of what to look for.

Q: Is it actually burnt sugar? The ingredients suggest it's just caramel-colored invert sugar.

Hello. So I did look on the label and lookes up inverted sugar. Seems just so and not quite a true definition of burnt sugar. Please call 18006966685 if you have any questions but am not really sure.

Q: Is there an equivalency for burnt sugar? Cups to Tablespoons?

This has to be used a lil at a time until you get the color you desire to the dish that you are making at the time. Start with a little and add more if necessary.
