Extended data:
From the production process, brown sugar is a kind of non-honey, which is made without honey separation. Although a certain amount of vitamins are lost in the production process, most nutrients of raw materials, such as minerals and protein, are retained. Besides the main sucrose and water, white sugar basically contains no other nutrients. So overall, the nutritional value of brown sugar is higher than that of white sugar.
In daily life, the use frequency of brown sugar will not be as high as that of white sugar, and the sales volume will naturally be less, which will lead to the increase of production and circulation costs of manufacturers, so brown sugar will be sold more expensive than white sugar.
