Correct option is A
The correct answer is (a) 40 percent.
Explanation:
· Invert sugar helps prevent crystallization in jam.
· If the invert sugar content is too low (below 30-40%), the regular cane sugar in the jam can crystallize during storage, affecting the texture.
· If it's too high (above 50%), the jam can become a honey-like mass.
· Therefore, a finished jam should contain no more than 40% invert sugar, according to horticulture experts.
