Superfine sugar is a recent discovery of mine. I accidentally bought it thinking it was powdered, and what I ended up with was a shortcut in baking delicious treats. Superfine sugar is, as the name suggests, a tiny granule of sugar. They dissolve more easily than the larger crystals in cold and hot liquids. They also make for a more finely textured dough or batter, which can often be the difference between a good cookie and a great one.
I used it most recently in the airplane and car shaped rolled sugar cookies, which received rave reviews from those who had a chance to taste test them. The bakers in the bunch commented on their smooth consistency.
Superfine sugar is also great to use for mixing drinks, from iced coffee to bar drinks that call for simple syrup or sugar.
