Is there brown sugar available around Aix-en-Provence or on-line?

wrrrrrrrrong. cassonnade is raw sugar and not brown sugar. this is something i had to explain to my french pastry teacher who translated it as such on our recipe sheet.

i haven't seen brown sugar or molasses in any stores in europe, let alone france. i definately remember a david lebovitz blog post about butterscotch or something and he mentioned that the french don't have brown sugar but that they have something else like it that is more acidic. i have yet to find any such item at the hyper-u or intermarche.
