Can you supplement this whit brown sugar! I need 2 cups of white but have run out.

Yes.It will taste slightly different, and if a light cake, it will alter the colour.

Yes you usually can, buckely. What are you making !

Yep - used brown sugar in a recipe in place of white the other day.Bikkies were yummy - will probably do this again.Brown sugar is slightly sweeter because it usually packs more into the same measure.Depending on what you are making, you may need to reduce amount slightly.

I find raw sugar a better substitute for white sugar - the flavour is not as caramelly as it is with brown sugar
