About DARK BROWN SUGAR

Market Pantry Dark Brown Sugar (sugar and molasses blend) is a dark brown baking sugar from Target's Market Pantry label, formulated from the two classic components: white granulated sugar and molasses. This is the standard commercial approach to producing brown sugar — refined cane or beet sugar is mixed with a controlled proportion of molasses to achieve the desired moisture content, color, and flavor intensity. Dark brown sugar contains more molasses by proportion than light brown sugar, resulting in a stronger, more complex caramel-toffee taste.

Nutritionally the product is identical to all brown sugars: approximately 375 calories per 100 grams, 100 grams of carbohydrates, and no meaningful protein, fat, or fiber. The molasses contribution provides trace minerals including iron, calcium, and potassium, though at typical recipe portions these are nutritionally insignificant. The 8-gram serving size is approximately two teaspoons.

The two-ingredient declaration (sugar, molasses) is more transparent than entries that simply list brown sugar as a single ingredient, confirming the formulation method. The product is free from all major allergens, is vegan-friendly, and is suitable for gluten-free baking. Molasses sourcing determines whether the product is suitable for those avoiding sulfites, as commercial molasses sometimes includes sulfur dioxide — however this product does not declare sulfites. Market Pantry positions this as an everyday baking staple for price-conscious consumers needing reliable dark brown sugar for cookies, cakes, marinades, and glazes.
