How to craft Sugar in Survival Mode

1. Open the Crafting Menu

First, open your crafting table so that you have the 3×3 crafting grid that looks like this:

2. Add Items to make Sugar

In the crafting menu, you should see a crafting area that is made up of a 3×3 crafting grid. To make sugar, you will need to place specific items in the grid. It is important that the items are placed in the exact pattern as our example images. Changing the pattern of boxes that are filled will change the item that is crafted.

There are 2 patterns you can use as a crafting recipe for white dye:

Pattern 1

There should be 1 sugar cane in the first box.

Pattern 2

There should be 1 honey bottle in the first box.

Now that you have filled the crafting area with the correct pattern, the sugar will appear in the box to the right.

3. Move the Sugar to Inventory

Once you have crafted sugar, you need to move the new item to your inventory.

Congratulations, you have made sugar in Minecraft!
