Icing sugar is finely ground sugar, often mixed with a little starch to prevent clumping. It dissolves quickly and is frequently used for dusting pastries or making glazes and creams. Its mild, sweet taste is indispensable in many desserts and baked goods.
Icing sugar is primarily used in recipes in combination with eggs, sugar, butter, plain flour, and baking powder. The sample recipes show a strong presence in cakes such as Marble Cake, Lemon Cake, and various apple cakes. It often serves for dusting or as an ingredient in batters and creams for desserts like Spaghetti Ice Cream Dessert and pastries like Coconut Macaroons or Waffles.
