Sugar is an organic compound, it contains covalent bonds. Things such as salt (NaCl) form ionic bonds, so they can dissociate in water as ions (Na+ Cl-). The solubility of organic compounds have to do with their polarity. Sugar is polar so it will dissolve in a polar solvent such as water. (like dissolves like)
