Icing sugar, also known as powdered sugar, can create a grainy texture if not properly sifted or mixed, affecting the smoothness of desserts. It also has a higher tendency to clump, which can lead to uneven distribution in recipes. Additionally, its high sweetness level can overwhelm other flavors in a dish, making it less versatile than granulated sugar. Lastly, it can dissolve quickly in moisture, leading to a less stable structure in certain confections.
