Icing sugar goes by several other names such as confectioners’ sugar and powdered sugar. Basically, icing sugar is a finely ground sugar made from milling granulated sugar into a more fine and powdery state. Icing sugar is very convenient especially in food industries where a quick-dissolving sugar is needed. Meanwhile, for home or bakery uses, it is used to make icing, frosting or other cake decorations.
Most baking recipes use icing sugar instead of granulated sugar. Would you like to know why? Well, it is because icing sugar will prevent clumping of other ingredients like granulated sugar does because it also contains 2 to 5% of an anti-caking agent such as corn starch or potato starch. The presence of this anti-caking agent can also absorb moisture and improve flow. Due to its very fine particle size, icing sugar can dissolve more easily into your mouth.
