    Solutions containing the maximum amount of solute that they can hold are known as saturated solutions.

    The final sugar solution is called supersaturated solution.

    Explanation:

    The solution described contains more solute than the maximum solubility at that temperature allows. This solution can only be obtained by forming a saturated solution in hot solvent and slowly cooling it down.

    Supersaturated solutions exist in an unstable equilibrium, then any little disturbance can produce the precipitation or crystalization of the solute.
