Brown sugar has a similar caramel depth and is the most common everyday swap for palm sugar. Brown sugar is moister and heavier by cup (220 g vs 200 g), so weigh when substituting and expect a slightly softer, sweeter result. See brown sugar in ounces.

Raw sugar is a dry, coarse cane sugar with a faint caramel note and similar weight per cup (200 g). It lacks palm sugar's earthy depth but works as a 1:1 swap by weight in recipes where the flavour difference is minor. See raw sugar in ounces.

Molasses is the dark syrup behind the earthy, bittersweet notes found in unrefined sugars like palm sugar. A small amount of molasses stirred into white sugar can approximate the flavour when palm sugar is unavailable. See molasses in ounces.
