Powdered sugar, also known as confectioners' sugar, is primarily composed of granulated sugar (sucrose) and a small amount of cornstarch to prevent clumping. Sucrose is a disaccharide made up of glucose and fructose. Therefore, while powdered sugar does contain fructose, it is present only as part of the sucrose molecule, not as free fructose.
