How do you make frosting without powdered sugar?
Well, today I made cupcakes, and a reliable source told me (since we didn't have icing sugar at the time) to take normal sugar and grind it in our coffee grinder, and then use it as icing sugar. At first, I thought it was crazy. Then I thought it was perfect! Then I didn't think it was so great. It was kinda hard to mix, and if you had leftover ground up coffee beans in there, the icing would end up with black specks in it. In the end I used the same icing with much help from a very good friend. It wasn't as good as icing with icing sugar, but it was icing. My friend said it was too sweet for her, and I kind of agreed with her, since the sugar is actually sugar. ---- Warning: * Be aware that after you apply the icing to your baked goods or food item, the icing hardens easily, but when poked the icing cracks. * The icing may be too sweet for your liking * It can easily harden * It's kind of hard to apply Tips: # When you use the sugar, it is the same as using icing sugar, use water or margarine for the icing. # If the icing gets too hard, mix it up a bit and add some water. # If the icing gets to liquidy, add a bit more ground-up sugar. Hope that helps!YOU CAN MAKE ICING SUGAR (CONFECTIONERS SUGAR) FROM GRANULATED OR CASTOR SUGAR. Put granulated sugar in a blender and blend until it forms icing sugar. Icing sugar is just a much finer form of granulated sugar. Also, icing sugar is more expensive than granulated sugar so this is a way to save money too.In regard to the former (original) answer, some coffee grinders are a form of blender, just smaller. In fact, you can grind coffee beans in a blender. You can also grind peanuts in a blender to make peanut butter.

Can you substitute powdered sugar with granulated sugar in a frosting recipe?
i would not use granulated sugar while making buttercream icing. i would only use icing sugar. icing sugar usually has cornstarch mixed in with the powdered sugar. even if you added cornstarch to granulated sugar it would still give you a completely different texture than icing sugar...it would feel very gritty.
Is there a way to make cake icing thinner?
Yes, you can make your own cake icing (also works for cupcakes). get a big bowl and you only need two ingredients, milk and sugar ( not the sugar you put in coffee or hot chocolate, you'll need powered sugar) then mix the milk and sugar in the bowl and you'll have icing. if the icing is too loose add a little more sugar. Then let it dry. NOTE: wash bowl right away after using it or the icing will dry. And if you dont like really sweet frosting dont make this :)

How do you get caster sugar from raw sugar?
Castor sugar may not be easy to find, but it is easy to make. In fact, it's really nothing more than granulated sugar that has been ground to a super fine consistency. Here's what you need: Granulated Sugar Blender or Food Processor Place granulated sugar in food processor or blender Pulse until it reaches a super-fine, but not powdery consistency Allow to settle for a few minutes. Then use in place of the castor sugar called for in your recipe.
How much less caster sugar to sugar in reciepe?
The same weight should be used for either. Caster sugar is just a finer grain so it will make a smoother textured result than using normal granulated sugar. Try using a blender on normal sugar to make it finer if you can't get caster sugar.

No... Powdered sugar is icing sugar. Granulated sugar is white sugar that is in granules. Chemically they are identical. The difference is in the physical structure. You can create your own powdered sugar by using a blender and granulated sugar. It won't be as fine, but it will be closer.
