brown sugar
The raw material of brown sugar is sugarcane, which contains about 95% sucrose. Sugarcane is concentrated into high-concentration syrup after high-temperature cooking, and solidified into solid coarse sugar after cooling, so brown sugar has a special flavor similar to caramel. The longer the cooking time in the production process, the darker the color of the brown sugar brick, which makes the brown sugar appear reddish brown in different shades. Our common traditional brown sugar powder is made of brown sugar bricks and then ground.

The boiling method of brown sugar is the same as that of brown sugar, but it takes a long time, and the sugar brick made of concentrated syrup presents a nearly black appearance. As for the difference between the two thicknesses, it is caused by different ways of reprocessing, so it is common to cut them into candy bars of different sizes or grind them into powdered sugar.
refined sugar
The refining method of white sugar is the same as the above method, but the degree of decoloration is different in the final refining. The higher the degree of refinement, the whiter the color and the higher the purity, but the sweetness will not increase because of the high purity.
Among these sugars, brown sugar is sweeter. Brown sugar is rich in substances, besides sweetness, it also has a unique special flavor, which is suitable for simple cooking, so as not to make the taste too complicated and self-defeating. For example, it is used to make red bean soup, brown sugar cake, black tea and coffee, and its sweetness is mellow and unique.
