About
Xylitol is a crystalline sugar substitute that takes up slightly more space per ounce than regular table sugar.
Xylitol is a white sugar alcohol commonly sold in granular form as a sugar alternative. It has a bulk density of about 50 pounds per cubic foot (0.8 grams per milliliter), meaning it takes up slightly more space than regular table sugar of the same weight. A level US cup holds about 6.7 ounces (189 grams) of dry crystals. A full US quart of the sweetener weighs roughly 1.7 pounds (756 grams).
From Wikipedia
Xylitol is an organic compound with the formula HOCH(CH CH2OH)2. Two other isomeric sugar alcohols exist.
