would this work to sift powdered sugar onto cakes, etc?

I haven't tried that, but I think it would work well. It might be a little small, though.

Yes. I don't have experience with it so I don't know if it would be pretty enough for your purposes, but I just tried it out and it seemed to give a light dusting, a couple inches diameter, when I tapped it. From now on I'll use it for that one cookie recipe I have that calls for it.

I don't see why not. Give it a try. I sued it for filling dainty pastries and it worked like a champ.

Yes it would...I had a bunch leftover from using in a chocolate fountain, so I put it in a Tupperware and melted it again the next week and used for strawberries and pretzels. I think it would work well for cake pops too.

Yes, I use them to sprinkle powdered sugar sometimes. You just hold it upside down over your food and tap the side of the canister.

My guess is it could, although you'd probably be better off with a good flour sifter. I have the norpro 3 cup, and absolutely love it for sifting wheat and bread flour. I think that would work well for what you are looking for. Hope that helps :)

I've used it for regular sugar, splenda and sugar on the raw and it worked well for all 3. So I would say "yes" it should.

I don't see why it wouldn't. It is designed for flour as well as sugar. We use it in a commercial setting and besides replacing the battery, it has worked flawlessly and we are sifting about 100 lbs of sugar a day.

I've found that it works great for mixing cake batters, though I have not tried it with thicker consistencies like brownies. I suspect the whisk tines may be too small for heavier things like cookie & bread dough. Cakes are great!

Yes, it will do the job. That's what I used it for. It works OK on everything but dried corn. If you are planning on baking often, though, it can be tedious.

I don't think it will work with granulated sugar. The area that sprinkles is very fine, works great for powdered.

Yes, it will work. I just tested it on some small kitchen items like spoons/measuring cups and I am able to get a reading as small as 0.1 pounds

I imagine so - I use mine for cake batter all the time. Bread dough is too thick for this model, though.

I haven't used it for a sugar scrub. Need to give it a try, but I don't see any reason it wouldn't work. It worked great for soap. It has a thick, smooth consistency.

I wouldn't. The screen mesh is not as fine as regular flour sifter. It does not work well either for say just dusting powdered sugar on a cake. Mesh is too big. My recommendation, stick to an actual sifter.

i havent tried it on those, but it picks up sweet gum balls very well, and i believe it would pick up anything that is basically round in shape.

Although I am not positive, I don't see why you couldn't. I sift powder sugar, baking soda, flour all the time.

It definitely can be used for thicker frosting, but you will probably want to use the larger tips.
