Brown+sugar'
Not Kosher for Passover
**Not kosher for Passover.** Brown sugar is refined white sugar with molasses added back in for color and flavor. The molasses typically contains chametz (leavened grains like wheat) from the refining process, making it non-kosher for Passover. Only specially certified "Kosher for Passover" brown sugar, processed without chametz, would be acceptable—standard brands like Domino or store varieties are not. (Source: Orthodox Union and Star-K kosher guidelines confirm this for Passover restrictions.)
