About Castor sugar
Castor sugar, also known as superfine or baker’s sugar, is finely granulated white sugar commonly used in baking and beverages. It’s made by grinding regular granulated sugar into smaller particles, which dissolve more quickly, making it ideal for recipes that require a smooth texture, such as meringues, cakes, and desserts. Castor sugar originates from sugarcane or sugar beet plants and is popular in English and European baking. Nutritionally, castor sugar is composed of pure sucrose, offering quick energy but lacking essential nutrients like vitamins or minerals. Its high glycemic index means it should be consumed in moderation, as excess intake can contribute to health issues such as weight gain, cavities, and blood sugar spikes. While it can be part of a balanced diet when used sparingly, castor sugar is best paired with nutrient-dense ingredients to enhance its culinary role without compromising overall health.
