What is the difference between raw sugar and granulated sugar?
Granulated sugar is the regular table sugar people use on a daily basis, although technically the term "granulated sugar" could refer to sugar which is derived from beet roots. Raw sugar is a byproduct of the refining of sugarcane to obtain regular sugar. You can certainly substitute one for another in cooking, however, you should not substitute them for another in baking, since the size and texture of the products are different, and that can affect baking results.
Does an aluminum or dark coated surface or cooking stone cook faster?
A dark coated surface, theoretically, should cook faster as it absorbs the heat faster. Having said this, the actual surface might absorb it rather than the food being cooked in it. Aluminium can be good in some cases, but as it's a reflective material, it can take longer as it reflects the heat rays onto other surfaces. I guess the best way to find out is to try all (but over a period of time)
I suggest cooking the same thing in each type, over time, and see your results!
Hope this helps :)

Look on a Twinkie package and you will see an expiration date - the company is very concerned that their cakes be eaten while still fresh.
