Powdered Sugar

 

This extra-fine (10x) Powdered Sugar is produced by milling granulated white sugar until it reaches an extremely fine-textured powder consistency.

  • Pure sugar sweetness
  • Quick-dissolving
  • Pulverized to 10X fineness
  • Finest grade of powdered sugar available
  • Contains cornstarch to improve flowing ability
  • Approximately 97% sucrose, 3% starch

 

Basic Prep

Ready to use. Add to taste.

 

Suggested Uses

  • Dust onto finished baked goods for added sweetness and subtle decoration
  • Mix with milk or water and other flavorings or colorings to produce quick icings and glazes to top cakes and cookies

Description

  • Powdered Sugar (also known as confectioner’s or icing sugar) is made by milling granulated white sugar until it reaches an extremely fine, powdery consistency.

  • Cornstarch is generally added to improve flowing ability and prevent clumping.

  • Powdered Sugar is available in varying degrees of fineness, the most common of which are XXX, XXXX and 10X, with 10X (such as our Powdered Sugar) being the finest.

  • Powdered Sugar is most commonly used in confectionary and baking, where it is the preferred sugar for making icings and for dusting onto finished baked goods for sweetness and decoration.

  • However, in industrial food production, it is often used where a quick-dissolving sugar is required.

  • White sugar, made up of more than 99% pure sucrose, is derived from sugarcane and sugar beets through heat extraction.

  • This produces “raw” sugar that still contains some molasses color and flavor.

  • From this point, it is further processed to remove the molasses, producing the refined white sugar that is most commonly used in a variety of food and drinks today.
