Different names for the same thing.
Confectioners sugar and powdered sugar are the same, so yes, you are using the same thing regardless of what the recipe calls for.
Yes
Um, yes. Confectioners sugar is the same thing as powdered sugar - just a different name.
Confectioners sugar (also called Powdered sugar) differs from "regular sugar" (Granulated sugar) in two ways. Confectioners sugar it's milled to a much finer grain and, and it has cornstarch in it to prevent caking. If you run of of Granulated sugar, you can substitute with Confectioners sugar. Multiply the amount of granulated sugar needed by 1.75. It takes 1 3/4 cup of powdered sugar to substitute for 1 cup of granulated sugar.
The common and accepted granulate taste is the same, only the texture has been altered. All sugar in most countries today are the same.. Powdered sugar or confectioners sugar are further refining steps. Sugar begins as some kind of dark or brown sugar. The refining process alters it.
Confectioners sugar is the same thing as Powdered Sugar. It's finer grind helps candy makers and cake decorators to make a smoother product, trying to avoid the 'grittiness' that can come with courser grades.Confectioner's sugar also known as powdered sugar or icing sugar.Granulated sugar which has been mechanically ground into a very fine powder.
No, it's the same thing. It's a finely ground sugar with a small amount of cornstarch added.YESNo. Powdered sugar is much more fine, and used for different purposes than confectioner's sugar.
The 4X just refers to how finely the sugar has been ground. For example 10X sugar is powdered or confectioners sugar. The larger the number the finer the grind.
Powdered sugar, icing sugar and confectioners sugar are all the same thing. It is usually known as icing sugar in England and powdered sugar in the USA. Confectioners sugar is used as an international name.These are the same thing. Powdered sugar, icing sugar, and confectioners sugar are just different names for sugar than has been ground to a fine powder so that it dissolves very easily.
no because white sugar is more clumped than powdered sugar and powdered sugar doesn't taste like sugar that much Powdered sugar is chemically not fundamentally different from regular sugar, just more finely ground. However, powdered sugar may contain additives to prevent clumping. you are exactly right!!!! by Terrier23
Yes. Confectioners sugar is made by finely grinding regular sugar until it becomes a powder.
Powdered sugar makes for a lighter texture and flavor when used in making cookies. However, more powdered sugar than granular sugar has to be used to obtain a sweeter taste. Also, powdered sugar is used on top of sugar cookies, sprinkled, to create a design/decoration, and to give the taste buds the initial enjoyment when one first bites into the cookie.
