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.
no, sugar and flour do not contain the same chemicals so if a recipe calls for flour and you use confectioners sugar, the final product could be flat and disgusting. i highly recommend u do not do this!
Confectioner's Sugar (powdered sugar) has a completely different consistency and quality than granulated sugar. You cannot substitute one for the other.
yes it can
Um, yes. Confectioners sugar is the same thing as powdered sugar - just a different name.
no you cannot and that's gross and you have a sick mind.

You could substitute splenda or another sweetener.
Yes, you can use regular sugar as a substitute for brown sugar in most recipes, but keep in mind that the flavor and texture may be slightly different.
You can replace the sugar in the recipe for Splenda, which is a sugar substitute.
Apparently not, because I just found multiple recipes for Angel Food Cake online that just use regular granulated sugar. Now if you want to make a glaze to put on top, you may need confectioners sugar
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.
Yes, you can substitute white granulated sugar for cane sugar, since most sugars do come from cane. The important thing is to use granulated (not powdered), and to use white if that's what's called for, and to use brown sugar if that's what's called for.
