Cane sugar (cane juice, cane juice crystals), contains a high concentration of sucrose.
Invertase is the enzyme which converts the sucrose into glucose and fructose. The enzyme causes breakdown of the sucrose to form simple sugars. Zymase is the enzyme which converts glucose and fructose into ethanol and carbon dioxide.
