If you don't mind having crunchy icing.
Type your answer here... The best meringue is made from castor sugar, because it dissolves easier than granulated sugar.
Not unless the cake recipe specifically calls for icing sugar. Granulated sugar has a specific weight to measured volume and will provide that specific quantity and sweetness to the cake. Icing sugar has a different weight to volume, different texture and a different level of sweetness. It is important to use the specific ingredient called for in the recipe being followed in order to obtain the proper result.
Yes, you can use caster sugar instead of granulated sugar. However, be careful on the measurements. Use a little less caster sugar. Caster sugar is finer granulated sugar. It is not as fine as powdered sugar, but it is in between granulated and powder. Caster sugar dissolves more easily,so it is very beneficial in making meringues.
No, it's very finely ground sugar to which cornstarch is added to prevent lumping. It's also known as powdered sugar or icing sugar.Substitute: Mix 1 cup granulated sugar + 1 tablespoon corn starch in blender until powdery.
Granulated sugar shouldn't be used as a substitute where powdered sugar is specified in a recipe; granulated sugar will be too coarse.
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.

Caster sugar or icing sugar. Sugar with larger grains do not dissolve properley in the cake mix.
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.
