Castor sugar, also known as caster sugar, is primarily composed of carbohydrates, specifically sucrose, which provides energy. It contains negligible amounts of protein, fat, vitamins, and minerals, making it primarily a source of quick energy without significant nutritional value. Its fine texture allows for easy incorporation into recipes, but it lacks essential nutrients found in whole foods. Overall, castor sugar is best used in moderation as a sweetener rather than a nutritional component.

Finely ground sugar is Castor sugar also called superfine sugar. Icing sugar is also a very finely ground sugar
One tsp is 5gm. 40gm of castor sugar is approximately 8 tsp.
Castor sugar.
To convert grams of castor sugar to cups, you can use the approximate conversion that 1 cup of castor sugar weighs about 200 grams. Therefore, 320 grams of castor sugar is roughly 1.6 cups. This can vary slightly depending on the specific type of sugar and how it is packed, but this is a good estimate.
Castor (or caster) sugar is a type of British fine sugar. It is called castor because its grains are small enough to pass through a sugar caster (sprinkler).
Dissolving will depend on surface area. Castor sugar has a smaller particle than regular sugar. The smaller the particle the larger the surface area. Surface area: Regular sugar < castor sugar < icing sugar. Castor sugar should dissolve faster than the same mass of regular sugar but slower than the same mass of icing sugar.
Caster sugar has finer granules than regular (or "granulated") sugar. For cupcakes, you should be able to use regular sugar instead of castor without any detriment to the final product.
granulated sugar means less fine sugar. fine sugar is the same as castor sugar!
