Yes, at the same gram weight (200g per cup). Raw sugar has a mild molasses flavour and the larger crystals may take slightly longer to dissolve.
Raw sugar undergoes less processing and retains trace minerals from molasses. However, the nutritional difference at typical serving sizes is negligible — both are primarily sucrose.
Muscovado is the darkest and most molasses-rich raw cane sugar, with very sticky, fine crystals and a strong, complex flavour. It weighs approximately 200–220g per cup depending on packing.
The large crystal size of raw/turbinado sugar resists dissolving on the surface during the short oven time, producing a sparkly, crunchy topping effect.
