you add water to it and stir but do not add to much water otherwise it will be the consistency of water!
1 cup of confectioner's sugar is approximately 1/4 pound. You won't be able to make much icing, but you can divide the typical buttercream icing recipe by 4. The recipe would be 4 oz. butter, 1/4 tsp. vanilla, 1 c. confectioners sugar and 2 - 4 tsp. milk, depending on the consistency you want.
Frosting is made with sugar - usually confectioners' sugar - liquid and butter. Flour is not used in making frosting.
Confectioners milk is sweetened milk. Milk is often used with powdered sugar to make frosting or icing for cakes. Food items that are high in sugar content are confectionery items.
Frosting is not made with flour; it is most often made with powdered (confectioners') sugar and shortening, or some other sugar that is caramelized then whipped to spreading consistency.
To make a delicious buttercream frosting using meringue powder, start by beating butter until creamy, then gradually add meringue powder and powdered sugar. Beat until smooth and fluffy, then add vanilla extract for flavor. Adjust consistency with milk or cream if needed.
Blend the softened butter and confectioners' sugar with an electric mixer to create a smooth frosting. If you prefer not to use a vanilla bean, increase the extract to 1 1/2 teaspoons
Powdered (confectioner's) sugar is a basic ingredient to cream cheese frosting. Substitutions such as granulated table sugar, brown sugar or honey will not produce acceptable cream cheese frosting. In a pinch, it may be possible to process granulated white sugar in a blender or food processor until very fine. Then add a tablespoon of corn starch to each cup of very finely processed sugar to approximate powdered sugar.
Yes. "Seven Minute Frosting" is made with ordinary granulated sugar. See link for recipe. Probably better to make your way to the store and invest in a can of frosting--or forgo the frosting altogether.
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.
To make buttercream thicker, you can add more powdered sugar or reduce the amount of liquid ingredients like milk or cream. This will help create a stiffer consistency for your buttercream.
To make icing with confectioners sugar, mix the sugar with a small amount of liquid, such as milk or water, until you reach your desired consistency. Add flavorings like vanilla extract if desired.
Buttercream frosting or icing naturally has a cream colour from the butter in it. The more air beaten into it, the paler it will be, and the softer it will be. The yellow colour of pure butter is naturally stronger if the cows producing the milk are grass fed rather than grain fed. If a pure white frosting or icing is wanted, do not use butter or make a buttercream, but the creamy flavour will be missing.
