We normally get bearsugar from a local source.
Unfortunately it doesn't play well with my wife's digestive track. None of the products listed in the first reply do either. Too high a fructose content.
The cane sugar I use is courser than normal US granulated. So I mix a bit longer to display it.

For merengue I use super fine. I find that works better for me than powdered.
