What it is

Brown sugar is a type of sugar made from sugar cane or sugar beets. It gets its characteristic color and flavor from molasses, which is either naturally present or added back to refined white sugar. "Non-GMO" indicates that the sugar cane or sugar beets used were not genetically modified.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use brown sugar primarily as a sweetener, adding a rich, caramel-like flavor to products. It also helps retain moisture in baked goods and contributes to browning. It is commonly found in desserts, baked goods, sauces, and glazes.

Health notes

Brown sugar is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. As a type of sugar, it contributes calories and is considered an added sugar when not naturally occurring in a food. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend limiting added sugars, with no specific amount recommended. JECFA has not set an acceptable daily intake for sugar itself, as it is a fundamental food ingredient.
