Re: Can you get brown sugar here?

Hi,

I buy the rohzucker gemahlen (finely ground raw brown sugar) from Migros. It's a little like Sugar in the Raw sold in the States, only a finer grind.

The closest thing I've found to, say, Domino's Brown Sugar in the US was something called Vergeoise Brune Sucre (by Béghin Say) in France. You'd never even know the difference, honestly. I got it at Carrefour in Mulhouse, which is worth a trip, by the way, to stock up on stuff that's hard to find here in die Schweiz.

Otherwise, Tomcat's suggestion to mix molasses with rohzucker sounds good, too

I haven't been able to find brown sugar yet. When I ask in the stores, they point me to the raw sugar or crystallized sugar. I'm looking for the soft kind you can get in the US for baking. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
