My favorite euhpemism for sugar I've found on labels is "evaporated cane juice".
I lost a few pounds in France last week, eating tons of bread, foie gras, cream sauces, and wine. But very little sugar.

I’m a sugar junkie and can’t touch the stuff. I haven’t had any bakery items, candy or frozen sweets in 7 months. And plan to stay that way because I feel like I’d be falling off the wagon. Added sugar is another story. I read my labels and avoid where I can. But there is no substitute for ketchup on French fries.
