About Dark brown sugar

Dark brown sugar is a moist, granulated sweetener made by blending refined white sugar with a higher percentage of molasses compared to light brown sugar. Its deep caramel color and robust flavor make it a popular ingredient in baking, barbecue sauces, and cuisines across the globe that require rich, complex sweetness. Originating from sugarcane or sugar beet processing, dark brown sugar is prized for its ability to add moisture and depth to recipes. It contains trace minerals like calcium, potassium, and iron from its molasses content, though these amounts are negligible in typical servings. While it offers no significant health benefits and is high in calories, its concentrated sweetness allows for reduced quantities in recipes. It should be consumed in moderation, as excessive intake of added sugars can lead to various health risks.
