Is this powdered enough to sub for powdered sugar? Like in frostings?

No, this is more like granulated sugar, perhaps even a slightly larger grain than common table sugar but melts slightly faster in your mouth. I haven't tried using it for baking or cooking, only as part of a dental mouth rinse in conjunction with Closys. I don't know what these wackos are saying in the other responses, this is straight up granulated and not powdery in the least. You could always try throwing it into a blender/processor/herb-or-coffee grinder to get it powdery, though. Even still, frostings can utilize granulated sugar so long as you allow it time or temperature to melt.

Yes! It's perfect in recipes. The powder is more finely grained than others I've tried so it blends better.

No, It is not truly a powder as I define it. It is better described as a fine grind. If you don't mind the consistency it would do well in your drink.

If you must use store bought frosting, try sticking it in the fridge for a little while first (but not too long!). Store bought is not as firm so sometimes the shape won't hold as sharp. You could also add powdered sugar to help thicken it up a bit.

That is a very interesting use for this. It is small black pebble-like pieces that would not fly off like powder, but it does get powdery and it does make a mess. I agree with the other reviewers about using the baking powder.

Hello,Do not use granulated table sugar in your dispenser as it tends to clog the dispenser and can impair its use. Instead, use powdered sugar or confectioners sugar. Other sweeteners also work well, Splenda, NutraSweet, and Agave are great substitutes.

It is a course crystal sugar. I don't bake enough to know if it will work for that. Sorry.

This particular one is granular, not powdered. I wonder if you could put it in the blender and make a powdered form like you do with sugar?? I really like this product.

Yes, it works just fine for both frosting and for cookies. Use the stiff frosting, if you are making it.

Hi! No. It is in powdered/granulated form. It is sweeter than cane sugar, so you do not need as much and it has less calories. In Europe, it is the most commonly used type of sugar.

No, it is for storage. If it helps I have a cheese shaker, like on the tables in Italian restaurants, that I use to shake on powdered sugar. I put plastic wrap under the lid when not using it.

I use mine for powdered sugar and we have to shake it a few times to get enough sugar on our French toast. Maybe it would work for your powdery salt.

hmmm, I'm not sure quite honestly. What are you trying to make? There is not a lot of power to this so if you are trying to make things like frozen smoothies and stuff I would steer clear. If you are just mixing powdered items with liquids and minor stuff then this will do the job just fine.

It is loose powder - it takes about twice as much to get the same sweetness as sugar. I did not find there to be an after taste. It is made from sugar so it has a lot of the same properties and flavors.

Yes. Just use it like you would sugar. But it is a little sweeter for the same amount.

Yes. It works the same as regular sugar, except it is not quite as sweet as regular sugar, which I happen to like. You need to add a little extra to make it the same exact sweetness as regular sugar.

You can shake it out over whatever you are trying to sweeten but it is not the best way to add sugar to something unless you only want to lightly powder the surface.
