agree  Cristina Munari: sì, perché non è necessariamente di canna, la cassonade per esempio è uno zucchero greggio di barbabietola.

zucchero di canna cristallino


Explanation:
When a recipe calls for "brown sugar" it is usually referring to light brown sugar; dark brown sugar should be used only when specified. This is relevant primarily when baking recipes sensitive to moisture and density (such as cakes), because of the difference in moisture content between the two types. In other applications, substituting dark brown sugar over light brown will yield a deeper flavor with more caramel, much like adding molasses would do.
