Mulberry molasses is made by extracting juice from mulberries and simmering it until concentrated and syrupy. Despite its name, it is a fruit concentrate rather than conventional molasses made from sugarcane or sugar beets.
Mulberry molasses can be spooned over yogurt, spread on bread, or served with tahini. You can also use it to sweeten sauces or baking, adjusting the other liquid ingredients because it adds moisture as well as sweetness.
Mulberry molasses provides energy, but its sugars become concentrated as the fruit juice is reduced. It can be enjoyed as a sweetener, though it should not be treated as a cure or as a substitute for a varied diet.
To make mulberry molasses, crush or press ripe mulberries, strain the juice, and simmer it until it thickens. The final flavor and texture depend on the fruit and how far the juice is reduced; avoid scorching it during cooking.
No, mulberry molasses does not taste exactly like honey. It has a concentrated fruity, sweet flavor, while honey has a distinct floral character that varies with the nectar source; they can sometimes be swapped as sweeteners, but the flavor will change.
People with diabetes should count mulberry molasses as a concentrated source of sugar, which can raise blood glucose. Whether and how much fits an individual meal plan depends on their treatment, so ask your clinician or dietitian for personal guidance.
No, mulberry molasses is made from mulberry juice, while grape molasses is made from grape juice. Both are reduced fruit concentrates, but their flavor differs, so swapping one for the other may change the taste of a recipe.
Usually, an opened jar of mulberry molasses can be kept tightly sealed in a cool, dry place, unless its packaging says otherwise. Use a clean, dry spoon, and discard it if you notice mold, an off smell, or an unusual change.
Yes, you can use mulberry molasses in baking to add sweetness and a fruity note. Because it is liquid, replacing dry sugar may affect the texture; reduce another liquid slightly and expect a deeper color in the finished bake.
Yes, mulberry molasses can replace maple syrup in many toppings and sauces, but it has a fruitier flavor and may be thicker. Start with a similar amount, then adjust to taste; the result will not have maple syrup’s characteristic flavor.

Mulberry molasses is a thick fruit syrup made by straining ripe mulberries and simmering their juice until concentrated. Known as pekmez in Turkey, it is a traditional preserve in parts of the country and the wider region where mulberries grow. Its texture is dense and glossy, with a deep fruity sweetness and a lightly caramelised note. It is commonly spooned over bread, stirred into tahini, or added to yoghurt, porridge and desserts.
Because the fruit juice is concentrated, Mulberry molasses is mostly a source of sugars; it contains 72.5 g of carbohydrates per 100 g. A little goes a long way: pair it with unsweetened yoghurt or tahini, or use a modest amount to sweeten breakfast.
