Cornstarch is added to confectioners (powdered) sugar to prevent the sugar from lumping, so the amount is quite minimal. And adding cornstarch to granulated sugar isn't what makes it confectioners sugar. Confectioners sugar is much finer and softer than granulated sugar, it has a texture much like that of cornstarch. So you would have to be able to grind granulated sugar into a very fine powder in order to make it like confectioners sugar.
Generally speaking, confectioners sugar is pretty specialized because it's so fine. If the recipe calls for confectioner's sugar, then that's probably going to be what it needs, especially in something like fudge which is temperamental anyway. I would suggest looking for a different recipe (microwave or otherwise) which uses plain table sugar, or just biting the wedge and buying some confectioner's sugar.
In New Zealand called icing sugar - confectioners sugar would be another name. Ground as fine as flour, and yummy on the strawberries and cream.
i would say regular sugar is granulated sugar or as some people call it white sugar.
Yes, they would have to be to make the angles equal, making it a regular hexagon.
No. In a regular polygon, all sides and all angles are equal. A rhombus has four equal sides but the angles don't have to be equal, so in general a rhombus is not a regular quadrilateral or a regular parallelogram. If the rhombus happens to have four equal angles, then it is a square, which would be a regular parallelogram.
A sugar-free mint would likely dissolve faster than a regular mint because sugar can take longer to dissolve than other ingredients in the mint. The absence of sugar allows the sugar-free mint to dissolve more quickly in comparison.
Be wary of the addiction of the sweet corn. It has more sugar content than you know. One sweet corn would practically equal around three regular corns grown from the ground.
4 grams of sugar equals 1 teaspoon. There are 3 teaspoons in one tablespoon. 40 grams of sugar equals 10 teaspoons of sugar. 10 teaspoons of sugar would equal 3 1/3 tablespoons.
The volume of sugar-free Jello is typically the same as that of regular Jello, meaning 3 ounces of regular Jello is equivalent to 3 ounces of sugar-free Jello. However, the difference lies in the ingredients and calorie content, not in the volume. So, you would use the same amount of sugar-free Jello as you would regular Jello for recipes or servings.
In most things, No. Powdered sugar has cornstarch in it and has much less sweetening for the same amount.Clarification:Powdered (confectioners) sugar has only a minimal amount of cornstarch, which really doesn't affect the sweetness. The cornstarch is added to prevent the powdered sugar from lumping.But, as the answer above states, it usually cannot be used as a substitute for granulated sugar since it can result in the recipe not turning out as well.
yes Superfine sugar is regular (granulated) sugar that has been ground more finely. It is sometimes sold as baker's sugar and is also known as castor sugar. It can be used as a substitute for regular sugar and may produce a slightly finer crumb(texture) in the finished product than regular sugar would, a result that is preferred by many bakers.
