Which item is classified as a sweet brown food?

Chocolate is classified as a sweet brown food due to its distinctively rich color and sweetness. It is made from cocoa beans, which are fermented, dried, roasted, and ground to produce cocoa mass. When sugar is added, it enhances the flavor and sweetness, resulting in the familiar sweet brown confection that is widely enjoyed in various forms, from solid bars to creamy desserts and baked goods.

While honey is indeed a sweet brown substance, it is usually categorized separately due to its liquid form and distinct flavor profile. Cinnamon, although brown, is primarily a spice and not predominantly sweet on its own. Brown sugar, while also sweet and brown, is typically processed from sugar cane or sugar beets and contains molasses, but it is often viewed as an ingredient rather than a standalone food in the same context as chocolate.
