No; light muscovado sugar is a brown sugar, while caster sugar is fine-grained white sugar. Muscovado is unique; it comes from Mauritius, where the soil contains lava that infuses the sugar with unique properties. It contains molasses, while white sugars like caster sugar have the molasses removed during processing.
