between beet sugar and cane sugar especially in baking. I am sure there are quality differences in brands due to processing. haven't been doing a lot of baking lately so can't really comment further but at the time I was having a little problem with some project (cookies I think but don't really remember) and when I switched to name brand cane sugar it seemed to solve the issue.
