/ˈkɑːstə ʃʊɡə(r)//ˈkæstər ʃʊɡər/

The term "caster sugar" originally comes from the French word "sucre en EPICEAS" which translates to "cane sugar in piece". This name arose during the 17th century when sugar was mostly imported from the Caribbean colonies of France and sold by weight in large, rectangular blocks. Merchants would shave off small amount of sugar using a special tool called a "caster" or "casse", hence the name "caster sugar". In England, the sugar became known as "caster sugar" due to the influence of the French, who had a significant presence in the country at the time. It was commonly used to sweeten tea and other beverages, as well as to make pastries and cakes. The term "caster sugar" refers to the type of sugar that dissolves easily in liquid due to its fine and powdery texture. It is also known as "superfine sugar" or "golden caster sugar" when made from soft brown sugar. The name "caster sugar" has become deeply ingrained in British culinary culture, and it continues to be widely used today.
