Brown sugar has much to offer in terms of richness in flavour, sweetness, and an aroma that gives off a burning, sort of caramel-like smell. According to the International Journal of Food Properties, research suggests that heterocyclic compounds and other acids found in brown sugar contribute to its unique taste. Also, the organic variant of brown sugar is pretty well known for its health benefits and the fact that it is free of chemicals.

A great sweetener and flavour enhancer, brown sugar is a sucrose sugar that has a characteristic brown colour due to the presence of molasses. Sucrose is a common sugar that is composed of glucose and fructose and extracted from sugar cane and/or sugar beet.

The molasses in brown sugar is said to contain amino acids, sucrose, vitamins, glucose, metal ions and other important components. The sweetener is produced globally in regions like South America and Africa with South Asia taking precedence in its production. The flavour enhancing agent is also said to consist of cytoprotective, antioxidant properties.

Now let’s look at all the delightful baked goodies that brown sugar recipes can bring you.
