No, they are two separate food savers. The SugarBaby Brown Sugar Saver is a 1.5 L glass jar with a special humidor lid that holds up to 1 Kg | 2.2 Lb. bag of brown sugar. The humi pocket Mini Humidor is a food grade silicone insert that fits any wide mouth mason jar to create a DIY Saver or humidor jar. Both include a food grade sponge that remains separate from the contents stored within the jar, and this offers a cleaner and more efficient way to keep brown sugar soft, is quicker at rehydrating rock-hard sugar plus allows you to store other food products (dried fruit, marshmallows, soft candy & more). Both savers are plastic free and/or reusable. The humi pocket does not fit inside the SugarBaby Saver.

Fresh brown sugar requires only a damp sponge to keep it soft and usable. Moisten the food grade SugarBaby or humi pocket sponge and fully squeeze any excess water leaving it damp and not too wet. Pop the sponge into either the SugarBaby Saver humidor lid or directly into the humi pocket insert and remoisten as needed. 

The SugarBaby Brown Sugar Saver (1.5L/50 oz) full size jar)-the SugarBaby sponge requires remoistening approximately

3-4 X per year. 

The humi pocket Mini Humidor is even less (especially when using a smaller sized wide mouth mason jar), required remoistening approximately every 9 months.

Yes, any kind of brown sugar can be stored and kept fresh when using either the SugarBaby Saver or humi pocket Mini Humidor. A more moist brown sugar, for example-best brown, requires a less moist sponge and/or a longer length of time between re-moistening. Whereas a drier brown sugar, like golden or yellow, could benefit from a touch more water and less time between re-moistening.

Typically, you can store any item that needs a touch of moisture to stay fresh. Other food products include dried fruit, marshmallows, soft candy, coconut, pet treats, baking, cigars and more. 

Alternate food products must be stored from a fresh or soft state as they cannot be refreshed or re-hydrated in the same way that hardened brown sugar can. Alternate food items require less water and/or more time between moistening.

For SugarBaby Brown Sugar Saver stored other products required moistening 2 X year!

For humi pocket Mini Humidor stored other products required moistening once every 9 months!

Rock-hard brown sugar is never a problem when using the SugarBaby Saver or the humi pocket Mini Humidor. Simply remove and moisten the sponge fully so it is more moist but not overly wet or dripping. Replace the sponge to the SugarBaby Saver humidor lid or directly into the humi pocket insert within your mason jar. Expect rehydration of rock-hard sugar to take anywhere from 24-48 hours to fully soften with less hard sugar refreshing quicker.

Unfortunately, other food products do not rehydrate like brown sugar can, but if you start with soft marshmallows, candy or another alternate food item you can keep them fresher longer!For SugarBaby Saver-other food products require less water and remoistening 2X year!For humi pocket mini humidor-other food products require less water and remoistening will vary dependent on the size of wide mouth mason jar used. *Smaller jars require less water and/or more length of time between moistening, approximate rate of remoistening is every 9-10 months.

We recommend washing or re-boiling your SugarBaby Saver or humi pocket sponge. Replacement sponges are always available. To troubleshoot against this issue, do not overfill your SB or hp jar as the moisture source is always meant to stay separate from your brown sugar or alternate item.

The brown sugar will remain soft and usable for almost 6 months for the full size SugarBaby Saver jar and 9-10 months with a humi pocket (depending on size of mason jar used). Because brown sugar requires moisture to remain soft, it is a necessary task to remoisten as directed, to keep your brown sugar from hardening.

No, the food grade sponge will naturally dry out as the moisture imparts itself into the brown sugar keeping it soft. We do not recommend using more water than necessary and the frequency outlined for both the SugarBaby Saver and humi pocket is sufficient in keeping your brown sugar ready for use.

We do recommend filtered or distilled water if you live in an area where you use well water or seasonal run off affects your water system. Most times tap water is acceptable but use your discretion.

Yes, the 1.5 L SugarBaby Saver is specifically designed to hold up to a maximum of 1 Kg or 2.2 Lb. bag of brown sugar. If you have any extra brown sugar that doesn’t fit into the SugarBaby Saver, it can be stored separately and left to harden. When it is needed, follow the how to refresh brown sugar directions (a more moist sponge) and allow 24-48 hours for rehydration.

Yes, follow the same rehydration directions for hard brown sugar. The humi pocket Mini Humidor works just as effectively as the full size SugarBaby Saver but offers the choice of any size of wide mouth mason jar and a lower price point.
