'''Brown sugar''' is a  [[sucrose]] [[sugar]] product with a distinctive brown color due to the presence of [[molasses]]. It is either an unrefined or partially refined soft sugar consisting of sugar [[crystal]]s with some residual molasses content, or it is produced by the addition of molasses to refined [[sugar|white sugar]] (so-called [[Molasses Sugar]]).

Brown sugar has a slightly lower caloric value by mass than white sugar due to the presence of water. One hundred grams of brown sugar contains 373 [[calories]], as opposed to 396 calories in white sugar.<ref name=newsci>New Scientist.

Any [[mineral]]s present in brown sugar come from the molasses added to the white sugar. Some molasses is a source of [[calcium]], [[magnesium]], [[potassium]], and [[iron]]; one tablespoon of molasses provides up to 20% of the daily value of each of those nutrients.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=118|title=Blackstrap molasses|publisher=The World's Healthiest Foods|accessdate=6 September 2012}}</ref>
