I use raw sugar just as I would use white sugar. Honey can be used to replace sugar when canning jams, jellies, preserves, chutney's, fruit, etc. To use honey in place of sugar in canning, use 7/8 cup for every cup of sugar, and don't change the other liquids. In baking some folks use honey cup for cup, others prefer 1/2 cup - 2/3 cup of honey per cup of white sugar. Also in baking, reduce the amount of other liquids by 1/4 cup for every cup of honey used and lower the oven temp by 25 degrees to prevent over-browning. Hope this helps! Susan Hello Ann-Marie,
