Light brown and dark brown soft cane sugar

sb44

I bought a bag of each of these last week from B&M because they were 39p for a 500g bag (Billingtons brand).

The only thing is I haven't got a clue what I am going to use them for!

Does anyone have any ideas how I can make the most of them please?

They are usually used in cake baking, but the dark brown is nice on porridge if you eat that.

I used light brown soft sugar in a steam pudding, and it was great.

No porridge in this house I'm afraid.

I do make Twinks' hobnobs so I suppose I can use the light brown one in those.

I sprinkle light brown sugar on my dd's weetabix then put warm milk over it. She loves it that way.

Mine won't eat anything with milk, if she eats bran flakes they must be dry!

I can get her to eat Marmite (yuk) on toast which is supposed to be good for her, def a case for extra brushing of teeth after breakfast.

Weetabix is the only breakfast cereal that she'll eat with milk. Cheerios, rice crispies etc (all own brand of course:p ) are always eaten dry.
I've lost count how many times I've found her "snacking" from the box in the cupboard when we've forgotten to put the elastic band back on the doors!
She even had a go at a dry weetabix:eek:

Make meringue using the light brown sugar. It makes it toffee-ish, which is rather nice.
