You cannot make traditional icing with caster sugar. However, you can use caster sugar to make a glaze or fresh whipped cream. (In a pinch, you can also use instant pudding with a third of the liquid it calls for.)
Icing sugar is also called powdered or confectioner's sugar. You can make it by putting ordinary sugar in a blender until it is powdery, and adding a pinch of cornstarch to keep it from clumping.
1 1/2 cups of icing sugar
1 egg (only the white)
1lid of vanilla essences
mix together the sugar and eggs. them wisk in the the vanilla :D so simple sooo good.
you can add food colouring too if you want (:
good luck
Put the required amount of Castor Sugar into a food processor. That's all icing sugar is, really. =D
That's not an icing recipe.
Swiss buttercream and Italian buttercream are two examples of icing made with regular sugar. The method for making them is different, but the sugar is dissolved in water to different temperatures in each one and added to beaten butter and finally flavoring is added.
You can put regular granulated sugar in the blender on high for a few minutes, until as light and powdery as you need it.
You can put sugar (granulated) into a food processor and run it until you have powdered it.
Either whiz it in a blender or pound it in a mortar and pestle until fine and powdery as flour, then add 5% cornstarch to keep it from clumping
Icing sugar is just very fine granulated sugar that has been powdered could make powdered sugar at home by putting normal granulated sugar in a coffee grinder.
i dont understand what you mean by pure.. but yes, you can make icing sugar
To make a glaze icing shine, mix icing sugar with water. As the water evaporates, the icing sugar remains in in solid form and glazes.
You add bubblegum extract to the icing sugar.
powder sugar-vanilla-teaspoon water
yes you can
Yes, you can use caster sugar to make buttercream icing. You will need to cream the butter and sugar until you get the correct texture.
The best way to make icing sugar hard is simply to leave it out. Within hours the air exposed frosting will harden.
i just use icing sugar, about a tablespoon of cocoa depending on how much icing sugar you use, a small amount of butter about a teaspoon and boiling water. just add more water or sugar to make it the thickness you want.
icing sugar about a teaspoon of butter and boiling water - different amounts of sugar and water for different consistencies (thickness's) and amount of icing of course and add some cocoa for chocolate icing and an essence for flavoured icing although i find icing to be sweet enough!
No - icing sugar is made from glucose and is simply white sugar finely ground to make confectioner's sugar or powder sugar. It often has small amounts of cornflour added. It is used to dust baked goods or to make an icing or frosting by adding small amounts of liquid or fat. Fruit sugar is made from fructose and is preferred by some people for dietary or allergy-related reasons. It is a form of granulated sugar. You could make icing sugar from fruit sugar by grinding it finely in a food processor and adding a small quantity of cornflour. If you're baking a cake and have run out of sugar you could substitute the same weight or volume of fruit sugar or a smaller volume or the same weight of icing sugar (because icing sugar is more finely ground than granulated sugar the same weight of icing sugar wil occupy less volume).
If you are making icing, yes. If you are making a meringue, no.
Confectioner's sugar is icing sugar mixture (pure icing sugar with a small amount (about 3%) of starch added as an anti-caking agent). Pure icing sugar is very fine powdered refined sugar with no added starch.
