It has no advantage in baking. But if it’s organic fruit sugar, the sugar release into the blood stream is slower than in cane sugar. Which means that it will take longer for the hunger to return. Cane Sugar has a higher glycemic index, so your blood sugar rises and crashes quickly Organic Fruit Sugar has a lower glycemic index, your blood sugar rises slowly and does not crash as fast. Which means after eating large amounts of sweet stuff your are less likely to go back for a second helping.

Calorie wise sugar is sugar is sugar. Alas it still rots your teeth and makes you fat. Sugar does not contain saturated fats. It comes from plants not animals. Cane sugar is also cheaper. Fruit sugar has no advantage in baking.
