OK, it's been a few weeks since I broke down and admitted that bread
WILL save hard brn sugar. It's been, what, a month, and that entire bag of brn sugar is as soft as a baby's butt. So yes, one slice of bread WILL soften an entire bag of brn sugar. Sure the bread is mummified, but --bottom line!-- bread WILL save yer brn sugar. ![]() nb --believer! |

I have had the same half piece of bread in my brown sugar canister for years and my the sugar stays soft. Sometimes it is had hard dry chunks when I pour it from the bag, but within a day it is nice and soft. |

Just know notbob (and Dave).... once you soften the brown sugar with the bread (only 1-2 days at most), you don't need to keep that bread in there. It's done it's job and you can toss it out. In a good sealed container, the sugar will remain soft. If it ever does harden again, use a fresh slice. It's the moisture in a fresh slice that softens the sugar. |

The couple of times it did though, a piece of bread overnight softened it right back up. Toss the bread once that happens and it stays soft on it's own. Funny to think Dave still has some ancient mummified bread in his container. LOL! :-D |
