Brown Sugar

Brown sugar is a soft, moist sweetener made by blending white sugar with molasses or retaining molasses during the refining process. Its rich caramel-like flavor and slightly sticky texture make it a popular choice for baking, cooking, and sweetening beverages. Brown sugar is available in light and dark varieties, with dark brown sugar containing more molasses, resulting in a deeper flavor. It is often used in recipes for cookies, cakes, sauces, marinades, and glazes. In addition to its distinct taste, the molasses in brown sugar provides small amounts of minerals like calcium, potassium, and iron, making it a versatile and flavorful alternative to white sugar.
