Let me try again, how do you make powdered sugar with this product?

you don't--powdered sugar is much finer ground. It can sub for brown sugar or regular sugar, but in a recipe because it's less sweet tasting I wouldn't sub. all, but maybe half with coconut palm sugar.

I would assume a high powered blender or processor would do it. I use it for powered sugar without alterations. The sweetness of this product is just right for me. No white sugar ever again. Good Luck.

Like Leigh, I use it as it comes. We use it in health food muffins, in pumpkin pie, in coffee, etc. It is about 32 on the glycemic index, so it is a health choice, not a cooking choice. It has a carmel like taste, closer to brown sugar. Maple Syrup has a rating about 64, sugars are 70 and up! Even honey is high. Acacia honey is a lower exception. I buy the 4 pound bag and often.

I have only used this item for salt. I think powdered sugar needs to be sifted.

Ok, so I did a test for you. I made 3 servings and it took 8 minutes. I would definitely recommend using threading sugar which you can order from amazon. It's really easy and each serving gets you a little more than a baseball-size serving. You turn it on and let it heat up for 3 minutes, then you shut it off and let the spinner atop(about a minute), pour in your 1-serving of threading sugar or 2 crushed candies, turn it back on and it starts making cotton candy immediately. Basically, you have to shut it off and wait for the spinner each time you make a serving. I'm happy to answer any other questions! And oh, don't use those colored sugared sprinkles. I did and it burned and made a mess. I also tried it with crushed hard candy and that worked well too. But you would need to use a basic hard candy like the consistency of a butterscotch disc or candy cane.... Jolly ranchers don't work very well.

If you have the time to wait, order Lyle's Golden Syrup from Amazon. If not, there is a good utube video that is about 4.5 minutes long that explains the process, but I didn't see the recipe. So here's what I think you use: 1/2 cup sugar with 1 TBS of water, then add 2 more cups of sugar and 1-1/4 cups of water with 1 big slice of lemon. I think this will make 1 jar.

I do not know. I have always used powder and mix it into water. I usually take a heaping spoonful and call it good enough. I would have to look up the conversion rates on-line.

I tested mine with granulated sugar. It work with a little less than a cup. Frosting should be the same.

I looked it up on YouTube, Generously spread baby powder around the bead part of the rime then just follow the instructions that come with the machine. Any other thoughts, Questions I'd look up on YouTube, it was very helpful watching someone do it.

I had the problem of natural sugar (from Amazon) arriving hard as a brick. I dumped it all (with some effort) into a container, put in a properly soaked Sugar Bear, SEALED the container and waited a week. The sugar softened, BUT you must keep the container closed and keep the Sugar Bear in there or it will harden again. Make SURE your container really seals tight.

You spoon the batter into the mold. You have to bake it several times to get it hard. Or make them thin. I think using your own recipes would be the cheapest way to go. The mixes are pricey, but convienent.

This is loose powder. I have found that this product does not have as strong an aftertaste as some other alternative sweeteners. However, this will depend on how much you use. You cannot use this product to replace sugar, cup-for-cup, as it is sweeter than sugar, and will overpower your recipe if you do so. I don't use more than 1/4--1/2 cup and that depends on what I'm making; I've used less at times. Hope this helps!

You could pulverize it into powder in a Vitamix, or dissolve it in water. I'm not sure if you could pulverize it by hand (with mortar and pestle.)

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.

You will need a coffee grinder b/c this product comes as whole beans b/c it is better to use freshly ground beans. But grinders are cheap and you may find it useful for other things like grinding spices. I have also used mine to make powdered sugar when I was out and only had regular sugar. You can do w/o a coffee maker. You can just boil it all in a pot and then pour it through a fine seive or if you let it sit for about 15 minutes most of the grounds will settle and you can just pour the liquid off the top.

Should be in a powder form. Try manually breaking it down before adding to solution.

Actually, I just tasted the powder before answering this question. I almost didn't taste any sugar, it is so little.

I only use a simple syrup for my sweetener which is equal parts of water and sugar that have been heated/warmed to dissolve the sugar.,so what I do is put 2-tablespoons of white sugar mixed with 2-tablespoons of hot water,stir until dissolved and cooled then I put the simple syrup in a 1-cup measuring cup and fill the rest of the way with the heavy cream..Hope this helps!
