Drak brown sugar has more molasses in it than light brown sugar.
The dark brown sugar has more molasses in it. If you need dark, can add 1 tbsp mild blackstrap molasses per cup of light brown sugar.
I’ve baked with light brown sugar and tastes good. When I ran out of it, I made my own using 2 tbsp mild blackstrap molasses to one cup white granulated sugar. Mix thoroughly with a fork. The recipe comes out more tasty and moister, so haven’t bought brown sugar since (months ago).
I dont think there is much difference with the taste the dark brown sugar might have a little stronger flavour, I think it is more to do with the appearance of the colour of the finished dish. The light brown sugar should be fine, I tend to use this most when I cook.
