About Packed light or dark brown sugar
Packed light or dark brown sugar is granulated white sugar combined with molasses, giving it a moist texture and rich, caramel-like flavor. Light brown sugar contains less molasses, while dark brown sugar has a deeper color and stronger molasses taste. Commonly used in baking, sauces, and desserts, it’s a staple in American, European, and Asian cuisines, particularly in recipes like cookies, barbecue marinades, and gingerbread. Brown sugar offers trace amounts of minerals from molasses, such as calcium, potassium, and magnesium, but these are minimal and do not significantly contribute to nutrition. While it provides energy from carbohydrates, it is still classified as an added sugar and should be consumed in moderation due to potential links to weight gain, blood sugar spikes, and dental issues when consumed excessively. Its versatility and flavor make it a popular ingredient, but mindful usage is recommended for a balanced diet.
