DETAILS
Light Muscovado sugar is natural, unrefined cane sugar that contains natural molasses – but less than Dark Muscovado. It has a rich brown colour and moist texture. It can be used in a whole host of recipes to sweeten them, from carrot cake to blondies!
STORAGE ADVICE
Light Muscovado Sugar should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. It is important to keep it away from moisture and heat to prevent clumping and maintain its soft, granular texture. Using a sealed container helps to preserve the sugar’s moisture content and prevents it from drying out. Additionally, it’s a good idea to store it away from strong odors, as sugars can absorb and take on the flavors of nearby substances. By following these storage recommendations, you can ensure that your Light Muscovado Sugar remains fresh and ready to use in your culinary endeavors.

Ingredients
300g self-raising flour
2 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp baking powder
100g dark muscovado sugar
100g light muscovado sugar
4 eggs
250ml (you need an oil with as little flavour as possible here oil, such as grapeseed or rapeseed)
1 orange, zested
200g carrots, finely grated
150g pecans, snapped in half
150g golden sultanas
Raspberry and white chocolate blondies
Ingredients
200g unsalted butter, plus extra for the tin
150g white chocolate, roughly chopped
300g light muscovado sugar
3 large eggs
200g plain flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
125g raspberries
Method
STEP 1
Heat oven to 180c/fan160c/gas4. Butter, then line, a shallow rectangular tin, approx 25cm x 22cm. Melt the butter in a pan, then cook gently for about 5 minutes, until the white solids turn golden and the butter smells biscuity and sweet. Cool for 5 minutes, then add half the white chocolate and set aside for a couple of minutes to melt. Stir until smooth.
STEP 2
Use electric beaters to whisk the muscovado sugar and eggs together for about 2 minutes until thick and pale. Tip in the flour, salt, cooled chocolatey butter and vanilla, then fold in with a metal spoon or spatula until even.
STEP 3
Pour the mix into the tin, then scatter with the rest of the chocolate and the raspberries. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until risen all over, with a dark golden crust. Cool completely in the tin, then cut into squares.
