What else can I help you with?
Can you use light brown sugar instead of regular brown sugar?
I really dont understand the question here, but both regular white sugar as well as light brown sugar is used in baking, it just depends on the recipe. Light brown sugar has less of the "molasses" flavour than darker brown sugar. Both of them can and are used in baking. There are a number of "grades" or "darknesses" of brown sugar and as the colour darkens the flavour becomes more intense. If your recipe needs the punch of a darker sugar then go ahead and use it. The colour has no effect other than taste in baking.
Can you substitute granulated sugar for brown sugar?
= Brown Sugar Substitute = For each 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar called for in a recipe, use 1 1/2 tablespoons molasses plus 1 cup granulated sugar. To make light brown sugar from dark brown sugar, use 1/2 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar and 1/2 cup granulated sugar. For dark brown sugar, use 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar plus 1 tablespoon molasses; or 1 cup granulated sugar plus 1/4 cup molasses.

What happens if you take off molasses from a recipe?
That really depends on the recipe. In most recipes that call for molasses, leaving it out will change the flavor dramatically. Also if something is not substituted to replace the molasses, you may find the result lacking a sweetness. Often molasses can be replaced by half as much brown sugar, or even honey which results in a sweeter, less bitter taste. It can also be replaced by sorghum syrup, a substance similar in flavor to molasses, but made from sorghum grain as opposed the sugar cane.

Why do you need sugar in cookies?
In baking, brown sugar essentially does the same thing as regular table sugar does. In fact, brown sugar is white sugar, only with molasses added. The molasses adds a certain color, a little more sweetness and moisture, and a little different taste, but by and large, the brown sugar does the same job as regular sugar in baking.
What is the us equivalent of golden caster sugar?
The U.S. equivalent of golden caster sugar is typically light brown sugar or a mix of granulated sugar and a small amount of molasses. Golden caster sugar has a fine texture and a slightly caramel flavor, which can be mimicked by using superfine sugar mixed with a bit of molasses. If you need a precise substitute, you can also process granulated sugar in a food processor to achieve a finer texture.
Is brown sugar wheat free?
Yes, or at least it should be. Brown sugar has no relationship with wheat. It comes from the sugarcane plant, just like all other sugar. brown sugar is just like white sugar, yet it has a lot more molasses in it than white sugar. Also it is stickier and can have a slightly bitter taste to it. as far as my knowledge goes, wheat and sugarcane are unrelated so brown sugar and wheat must be unrelated. hope this helps.
What kinds of sugar do you know?
