No, you can't. Muscovado is another name for minimally processed or "raw" sugar. I nickname that stuff "eye-boogers" because it looks like the stuff you wipe out of your eyes when you wake up lol. Because of muscovado's coarseness, massive size granules and lack of thickener (in comparison to powdered sugar), it is NOT a suitable substitute in recipes that call for powdered sugar. You can TRY to make powder of it with 2 parts sugar/1 part cornstarch IF and only if you have a food processor. But I can't recommend it as that's something even I have never tried before. I can't really help much further because you didn't describe what recipe you're trying to substitute powdered sugar for or why you need to substitute it.
Yes, you can substitute confectioners' sugar for powdered sugar in this recipe.
is muscovado sugar good for diabetics
yes, they are exactly the same thing.. if u look on the granulated sugar u will see somewhere in small word powdered sugar
Muscovado sugar is less refined than normal sugar, retaining more of its natural molasses content and a stronger flavor profile with hints of toffee or caramel. Normal sugar is more processed, resulting in a sweeter taste and lighter color compared to muscovado sugar.
Confectioners sugar and powdered sugar are the same, so yes, you are using the same thing regardless of what the recipe calls for.
No. Powdered sugar absorbs water, whereas granulated sugar does not. This makes a huge difference in baking, since interchanging these can turn the texture into something brick-like. (It is similar to attempting to substitute sweetcorn kernals for cornflour).
It is unrefined or raw sugar, obtained from the juice of the sugar cane by evaporating and draining off the molasses. Muscovado sugar contains impurities which render it dark colored and moist.
bad
You could use dark brown sugar, but the flavour will not be as strong.
I wouldn't. You are likely to wind up with a saggy, disappointing mess. Powdered sugar dissolves instantly. Granulated does not. Follow the directions for the whipped cream you are making.
Granulated sugar shouldn't be used as a substitute where powdered sugar is specified in a recipe; granulated sugar will be too coarse.
A good recipe that uses light muscovado sugar as a key ingredient is a caramelized banana bread. The light muscovado sugar adds a rich and caramel-like flavor to the bread, making it extra delicious.
