Powdered sugar can be made of white granulated sugar or rock sugar and corn starch, so if we have a cooking mixer at home, we can also make powdered sugar ourselves, but we must make it with corn starch. Other starches may cause caking, and the proportion must be well controlled.
White granulated sugar and corn starch can be used to make sugar powder. The types of white granulated sugar are divided into fine granulated sugar and coarse granulated sugar. These two kinds of sugar can be made, and rock sugar can also be made. Moreover, rock sugar is better than white granulated sugar. Before putting it into cooking, rock sugar should be broken first.
It is very simple to use the mixing stage to make powdered sugar. Mix the white granulated sugar and corn starch according to 10:1 and pour it into the mixer. Use the mixer for half a minute and stop for 5 seconds. After about 3 minutes, the powdered sugar can be poured out and screened. In this way, the self-made powdered sugar is completed.
When making only, be sure to use corn starch. Corn starch can absorb moisture and prevent icing sugar. If it is other starch, it will not have this function, and it is best to mix it with sugar in the correct proportion.
