English term or phrase: Blackstrap Molasses
We're talking about sources of calcium in the diet.
Is there any accepted equivalent in Italian?

Clarification request(s) and response
pataflo: 3:19pm Jul 5, 2007: I think I got your point: melassa is not common in Italy. An equivalent source of calcium could be sciroppo d'acero - it is not really to be found in every household, but at least it is not so "exotic"...

See also melassa in Wikipidia for further confirmation.
It's the molasses that comes from the last boiling.
