There is a belief that Brown sugar is way better than white sugar in regards to the nutritious value of the two.

While this is a prevalent belief, there is no proof of the same. Brown sugar contains water and definitely is way sweeter than the regular white sugar but which one is the best for you to use?

Raw sugar as we all know is extracted from the sugar canes. The nature of the raw sugar is brownish in the shade because it contains molasses.

To manufacture the white sugar, manufacturers take out molasses from the sugar. This happens by bleaching the sugar. But this does not mean the molasses cannot be added back. It can be added back.

So the only difference in these two sugars is the taste. Because of the presence of molasses, brown sugar tastes richer and sweeter while white sugar is dry and grainy.

When we go for the comparison of these two types of sugars there is no such a huge difference in the two. They just differ with 1% of water level.
