- Dark molasses is the syrup that results from the second boiling process. Of course, darker in color and less sweet than light molasses and is often used in baking and cooking. Gingerbread cookies, baked beans, and barbecue sauces include molasses as a flavoring agent.
- Blackstrap molasses is the syrup that results from the third boiling and has a robust flavor. It is the thickest and darkest type of molasses and offers a more bitter taste.
