You can use one bear in light brown sugar and the other in dark brown sugar, or rotate them between containers. Many customers use one bear to soften two bags of brown sugar at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it compatible with jaggery, Truvia, or other alternative sweeteners?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
