What is Superfine Sugar?
Superfine sugar, also known as caster sugar, is a finely granulated form of sugar that lies between regular granulated sugar and powdered sugar. Its smaller crystal size allows it to dissolve rapidly, making it perfect for recipes that require a smooth and uniform texture.
Unlike powdered sugar, superfine sugar does not contain any anti-caking agents. This makes it ideal for baking, beverages, and desserts where purity and consistency matter.
