What it is

Brown sugar is a type of sucrose sugar product with a distinctive brown color due to the presence of molasses. It is either unrefined or partially refined sugar, or it can be made by adding molasses back to refined white sugar. This process gives it a moist texture and a caramel-like flavor.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use brown sugar primarily as a sweetener and for its unique flavor profile. It also contributes to moisture retention in baked goods and can be used to create glazes, marinades, and coatings for various foods, as seen in products like prepared meats and sandwiches.

Health notes

Brown sugar is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA as a food ingredient. As a source of added sugars, its consumption should be mindful of dietary guidelines. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend no specific amount of added sugars, suggesting consumption should be limited, with a maximum of 10 grams per meal. JECFA and EFSA consider sugars as basic food ingredients rather than food additives requiring specific acceptable daily intakes. Excessive intake of added sugars, including brown sugar, is associated with various health concerns.
