In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup water to boil. Simmer, uncovered, until sugar is dissolved; remove from heat and cool. Stir in 1 cup cranberries. Place 2 cups super-fine cane sugar in a rimmed baking pan. Working in small batches, use a slotted spoon to remove cranberries from syrup mixture and roll in super-fine sugar.
