How to stop Brown Sugar going hard

So I’m willing to hazard a bet, that if you’re a baker, you get fed up with having to separate your sugar as it goes into one hard lump. Brown varieties have a tendency to form into clumps regardless of the container you store it in.

I’m not really a  baker but I do use brown sugar in a lot of dry rubs and when making things with a high vinegar content such as Pulled Pork. Every time I go and get the brown sugar it’s formed into one big lump.

There is, however, a really simple trick to stop this happening. All you need to do is add a large marshmallow to your storage container as well. This reduces the sugar’s ability to form clumps. See, told you there was an easy solution.
