Golden Brown

Ask for C&H Golden Brown Sugar, which is always 100% pure cane sugar and is always naturally brown all the way through. Don’t settle for less!

C&H Golden Brown Sugar has a nutty, caramel flavor, natural moistness, and subtle molasses flavor. It’s ideal for cookies, shortbread, spiced cakes, brownies, and crumble toppings. Generally, if a recipe doesn’t specify Dark or Golden, it is intended that Golden Brown be used.

Brown cane sugar is a natural combination of sugar and molasses, refined without any added colorings, flavorings, or coatings. Formed using the traditional method of crystallization, each C&H brown sugar crystal is brown all the way through. If cane sugar is not specified on the label, the sugar may be beet sugar. What beet sugar makers call "brown sugar" starts out as white sugar crystals that are then sprayed with a brown coating. Often the center of the crystal remains white and the brown molasses coating can be rubbed off in your hands. Not exactly what you want when you go to the effort of baking something fresh from scratch!

NUTRITION FACTS

Storage Tip

Substitution Tip

To retain moistness, brown sugar is best kept stored away from light and heat in an airtight container. Occasionally, brown sugar will lose its natural moistness and become hard. Even though the shelf life of brown sugar is indefinite, it’s best to use it within six months of purchase for maximum flavor. Don’t store brown sugar in the refrigerator. However, if you are in a very dry area or are going to keep it for a long time, you may want to freeze it.

In quick breads, cookies, and some cakes (such as an applesauce cake), brown sugar can usually be substituted for granulated. Use 1 cup of lightly packed brown sugar to replace 1 cup of granulated. For fine-textured cakes and fancy desserts, it’s usually better to use C&H Baker's Sugar.
