Pour some sugar on me. I have bought this sugar before and keep a bag in my pantry because I use castor sugar for baking and in some recipes. It’s 1 kilo pack for $2. 20, making it a good low priced sugar. I don’t like the packaging as there’s been times where the opening isn’t sealed properly or is slightly open and sugar easily spills out. I store the sugar in a glass bottle in my pantry. I use this for any sweet recipes and also when I’m making naan and for raita. It’s really tasty in raita, I just whisk 1 cup yoghurt with a fork, add a good pinch of this sugar and a pinch of salt and a sprinkle of mint leaves and it’s perfect for anytime eating. It’s pure Australian cane sugar. I’d recommend and purchase, thank you for the sample.... Show more

Excellent! This pack of sugar is proudly Australian grown and Bonsucro certified, which instantly gives it a stamp of quality and sustainability. The castor sugar itself has a fine texture, perfect for baking and dissolving quickly in my recipes. I used it to make a batch of delectable lemon bars, and the sugar blended smoothly with the other ingredients, resulting in a delightful sweetness that wasn't overpowering. I particularly appreciate that Woolworths takes pride in sourcing their sugar from Australian growers. Supporting local farmers and sustainable practices is an important factor for me when selecting products, and knowing that this sugar is Bonsucro certified further ensures its ethical production...

Pantry Staple. This is a 'must have' for pantry. Great for all your baking needs and just as good as the name brands. I use this for baking regularly and it has never let me down. It is also proudly Australian grown and Bonsucro certified. According to online resources: "There are two types of Bonsucro certification– one on the production end of the supply chain and one on the trading side of the supply chain. The two work together to ensure that sugarcane production benefits producer communities, ensures people are treated fairly and creates long-lasting, traceable supply chains. "I store mine in an airtight container in the pantry. I use this sugar for muffins, cookie, slices, croissants, cheesecake and the list goes on. I will continue to purchase.... Show more

Perfect for light fluffy baking. This was a limited release sample and I was very pleased to have the opportunity to try it. I usually make castor sugar if a recipe calls for it by blending normal sugar to make it finer. I’ve avoided having to store another sugar and saved money but I don’t do it all the time because of the hassle. Today I used this in apple tea cakes and the butter/sugar did cream better to a lighter mix. The cooked cakes also seemed less dense. I was very impressed with the result and will actually buy this again for the convenience and use it more often. At $2. 20 it was worth it for the improved result. It made me think is there ever a time where using ordinary sugar in baking is preferable to caster sugar…hmmm?... Show more

Great caster sugar! I recently tried using this caster sugar in my baking and was really pleased with the results. Caster sugar is a fine-grained sugar that is made by grinding granulated sugar to a finer consistency. It has a subtle sweetness and a delicate texture that works well in a variety of baked goods. I found that the caster sugar dissolved easily in my recipes, which resulted in a smooth and even texture in my baked goods. It also added a nice subtle sweetness that wasn't too overpowering. Overall, I highly recommend using Woolworth's caster sugar in baking. It adds a subtle sweetness and a delicate texture to your recipes, and it's also very easy to work with. It's definitely a pantry staple that I will be keeping on hand from now on.... Show more

Australian grown and Bonsucro certified promoting sustainability for future generations of the sugarcane industry. Thank you for the opportunity to review this product which will remain a staple in my pantry.... Show more

More baking thanks now to Caster Sugar! I always buy caster sugar for my baking as I find it dissolves and incorporates into my mixes much better. I normally buy a name brand variety but having now sampled this Woolworths brand sugar I must say it is no different than the name brand varieties. Well now I will start buying this one as it worked a treat in and for all my baking needs. And to top it off it is actually an Australian product, pure and simple - cane sugar!As with the brown sugar I sampled recently, I also appreciated the blurb on the back of the package about Bonsucro - for responsible and sustainable sugarcane. It makes me feel good about using these products for sure. A great product and yes I will buy it again!Must share a few photos again. Hope you ... MoreMore baking thanks now to Caster Sugar!

A Pantry Staple. I got this as a sample this week, picked it up and it's very easy to review as I always have this in the pantry. I don't do much baking, however my lemon meringue pie is my signature dessert. Made from scratch from the Women's Weekly Cookbook I got for my birthday when I was 16 (50 years ago) everyone asks for it to be on the menu. I use this caster sugar as it's as economical as they come at $2. 20 RRP per kg. Stores well, is easily as good as the brand product. Product of Australia. Proud little product in my pantry. I don't use much sugar so occasionally when I run out of regular sugar (about once every 2 or 3 years) I fall back on this reliable little baby. This is always going to be a repurchase when I need caster sugar.... Show more
