title_body: Are coffee enhancers bad for you?
upvoted_answer: That site that you linked (from www.buismaningredients.com, and this one) suggest that the main ingredient is caramelised sugar. The claim is simple enough: "caramelised sugars enrich the taste of coffee" (from cited articles). Caramelisation is the thermal decomposition of sugar (sucrose); not precisely "burnt" as such but similar. 
  
  I can't find any ingredient list for that product, but the company that makes it basically produces just caramelised sugar and caramel color. I can't find any negative health claims for caramelised sugar itself other than the basic ones for regular sugar (blood-sugar effects, teeth effects, etc.). Some have concerns about caramel color.
