Yes, sugar like all organic compounds contains carbon.

Table sugar or sucrose is C12H22O11, so each molecule contains 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 11 oxygen atoms.

How is carbon used in the process of photosynthesis?

Carbon dioxide is converted to sugar using ATP and NADPH. This process is known as carbon fixation or the Calvin cycle. Carbon dioxide is combined with a 5-carbon sugar creating a 6-carbon sugar. The 6-carbon sugar is eventually broken-down into two molecules, glucose and fructose. These two molecules make sucrose or sugar.
