Sugar

Sugar is a food item derived from sugar cane. Sugar is a necessary component in the cake crafting recipe. The difficulty of finding sugarcane in some biomes makes the cake harder to craft. Sugar cane farming makes it easier to craft the cake. Neither sugar nor sugar cane can be eaten by themselves. Besides crafting, sugar is also used in brewing to make potions with speed effects.

Trivia

 * Sugar used to be oddly large from third person or other players view in multiplayer. It also appeared to be held from a different angle than other powder-like items such as Gunpowder and Redstone Dust. This was due to a programming error fixed as of 1.0.0, which specified that sugar should be wielded as a "tool" in third person. This error is shared with Eye of Ender. This keeps happening on Pocket Edition
 * One of the splash texts on the title screen is "0 % sugar!".
 * Technically, sugar harvested directly from sugar canes is brown, not white.
 * In Minecraft Pocket Edition the sugar can be crafted even though it's completely useless, since you can't craft either cakes nor pies
