**** Castor sugar is the name of a very fine sugar in Britain, so named because the grains are small enough to fit though a sugar "caster" or sprinkler. It is sold as "superfine" sugar in the United States.
Because of its fineness, it dissolves more quickly than regular white sugar.
If you don’t have any castor sugar on hand, you can make your own by grinding granulated sugar for a couple of minutes in a food procesor (this also produces sugar dust, so let it settle for a few moments before opening the food processor
