Can white sugar be replaced with brown demerara sugar in cooking and baking?
Definitely. There are many recipes in which you can do this: biscuits, cakes, Chinese recipes containing sugar, pancakes, hot drinks and more. It is important to remember that brown sugar is less sweet than white sugar, so adding more brown sugar to the recipe may be necessary to reach the desirable level of sweetness. This is a healthier solution, providing a richer, deeper taste.
