White caster sugar is a finely ground sugar commonly used in baking. 

While caster sugar and granulated are fairly similar, the main difference is the grain size, with caster sugar being the finer grain. Its small granules mix and dissolve more easily with other ingredients, making it perfect for use in biscuits, cakes, pastries and meringues. 

White granulated sugar, is a slightly coarser grain of sugar sometimes known as refined sugar or table sugar, and a staple for the cupboard. 

It's great for making toffee, as its less likely to crystalize than caster sugar, and in baking when you want a slightly coarser texture, such as in shortbread

The fine crystals already in granulated sugar also don't cake together, making it perfect for sprinkling into food and dissolving into drinks 

Self raising flour is a mixture made up of regular flour, and a raising agent (generally baking powder). The leavening power of the baking powder is mixed evenly throughout the flour, so you automatically get that nice rise out of your baked good every time you use self raising flour. 

Use this storecupboard staple to create beautifully fluffy cakes, scones, pancakes, biscuits, and other baked goods.

Wholemeal flour, also known as wholegrain, is made using the whole of the wheat kernel. It adds flavour and nutrition to baked products, especially bread.

Wholewheath flour has a high fiber content, whereas most of the fibre in white flour is removed during processing.
