Raw Caster Sugar

Ingredients: Cane sugar

CSR Raw Caster Sugar is one of baking’s best kept secrets! CSR Raw Caster Sugar combines the honey-like flavour of raw sugar with a finer crystal size that is ideal for baking. The smaller crystal size dissolves quickly and caramelises evenly, giving baked goods a lovely light golden brown finish.
