I have been making my own homemade brown sugar for years now and I won't ever go back. You can't beat the fresh taste of homemade and it's the most cost affect way to have organic brown sugar. I hope you try it!!

Of course you make your own brown sugar. Of course you do. I didn't know that was a thing, but of course you do. I'm nearly twice your age, but I am learning a lot from you...and you're motivating me so much. Thank you.

Your never too old to learn and #2 our souls are pretty much the same age its our physical bodies that age. Thats why the term "old soul" when reffering to very young children who are beyond their peers in wisdom is not a coincidence its very real . I myself was one of those children actually too I'm sure alot of us were. Either way awsome information shes sharing! 😄😃 Thankyou
Have made my own brown sugar for years. Find store bought brown sugar doesn't taste the same, and all the baking from granny's old recipes didn't taste the same. Since making my own, it tastes like granny's baking again!!

O.M.G. I don't know why I never thought to research how brown sugar was made....this would have saved me COUNTLESS last minute trips to the store when beginning my bake fests and realizing I was out of brown sugar. I keep regular sugar and molasses on hand at all times (cause ya never know when the mood strikes for shoo-fly pie!) I will now always be prepared! (Also, your slippers are super cute!)
Where have you been all my life I'm so glad I found you I like to make a lot of things myself and never could get up the courage but you have made them so easy and simple im not afraid to try so a big THANKS for all that you have taught
Wow I can't believe how easy that was! 😊I have learned more from watching your videos in the last two day then I think I have in the last year!!!

Simple trick here - If your sugar, white, brown, or whatever, should become caked and hard, lay a piece of fresh bread on top and seal the top or lid, and in a day or less the bread absorbs the moisture and your sugar is again soft!! A free tip from a long-time bachelor! S. Carolina

I have 1970s style vintage tupperware for my “working” baking staples. I enjoyed using them so much i went nuts buying sets 15yrs ago when nesting with my younger kiddo
I love the darker brown sugar as well. I love your reasoning for making your own. So smart!
omg this blew my mind :O I had no idea it was this easy to make
I continue to learn so much from your channel!! Thank you for sharing your life/kitchen on KZread.
I tried your “homemade” brown sugar. I am quite a bit older than you. I cook, bake, prepare my family’s meals myself and have been cooking since I was about 14 years old or younger. I didn’t know you could make your own brown sugar!!! I needed brown sugar this week and decided to give your recipe a try and,,,,girl! It was so easy! I like light brown sugar and I was so happy with the results! I will probably never buy brown sugar again! I had the containers like you showed in your video and I used mine as well. YOU ARE A DEDICATED WONDER!!! I can’t wait to see what you do with your new freeze dryer! I’ve had mine since May and I’ve been going crazy with it! It’s truly an amazing investment! I hope you like yours. Love your videos! Dee.
This is awesome Becky! Please continue sharing and encouraging us to follow suit. I'd love as many recipe videos as you can put out. I will watch them all! Also thank you for all the resources to buy pantry items in bulk! I am going to start buying from them!

For what its worth I don't go to the bother of making brown sugar. I just substitute granulated sugar in the recipe and add some molasses. BONUS TIP: after wiping molasses drips our of my cupboard for the umpteenth time I put an old peanut butter jar lid under the molasses jar to catch the drips.

I have been making my own for about a year. I have to say I felt the same as you. It is such a great feeling to make it and it be better than you can buy and it gives you a good feeling that you have done this yourself. It makes you look to what else you can make for yourself. I followed a receipe the first time and now I just glug the molasses in until it looks the color I want also. Thank you for sharing. My daughter and my soon to bee son in law are staying with us. He likes to cook. He was making something that needed powder sugar and he said you are out, I said just a minute and I will make some. I made it and his guests were so impressed. Then I told them I make my own brown sugar and they just couldn't believe it. Puts a smile on my face.

So sick of brick hard brown sugar will definitely be trying this and thanks for the heads up on the storage containers. I will also be trying your recipe for homemade sour cream what we get in the store is so watery and has no flavor. I commented before about you being a pioneer but what I meant to say was you have a pioneering soul. Going back to more wholesome food through gardening, canning, and from scratch cooking. I have done a lot of this for years but we sold our home of 45 years and moved into a smaller home and yard so no garden we are 74 and 80 and found it all too much to keep up ( but I really miss my garden). You have such a positive view and it is a joy to watch you and learn something new. Hugs Ann
