Scope note
Vessels for pouring sugar, typically comprising a cylindrical container of glass or another material and a spout or other relatively large opening to allow pouring or dispensing of table sugar into a cup of coffee or tea. Sugar dispensers are typically found in diners, coffee shops, or other casual restaurants, and are intended to replace the sugar bowl with a more hygienic and neater device for dispensing sugar. For vessels to sprinkle sugar, use “sugar shakers” or "sugar casters." For lidded bowls from which sugar is dispensed with a spoon at table, use "sugar bowls."
