Does a cup of granulated sugar equal a cup of powdered sugar?
Q. If I were to substitute granulated with powdered would the flavor change? I am not concerned about the thickness or anything, just the flavor.

A. All refined sugars--brown sugar, white sugar, raw sugars such as demerara or turbinado--are equal from a nutritive standpoint. Brown sugars simply contain a higher molasses content. Refined sugar is 99 percent pure sucrose, a simple carbohydrate. Other sugars, such as honey, taste sweeter on the tongue than granulated sugar. You can therefore use less honey to sweeten a batch of muffins than you would sugar. Maple syrup tastes less sweet than sugar, but its unique flavor is prized in baked goods and desserts. Listed below are common sweeteners and substitution suggestions. Natural Sweeteners Honey consists of several components: fructose, glucose, maltose and sucrose. It is 25 to 50% sweeter than sugar, and has a distinctive… [cont.]

How do I measure 1 pound of powdered sugar with a measuring cup?
Q. Recipe calls for 1 lb. of sugar. How much would that be using a measuring cup?
Asked by Jon - Wed Jul 15 02:31:37 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Well, I buy Domino powdered (a/k/a confectioners) sugar and it comes in a 1lb box. So it might just be as easy as buying a 1lb box. If that's not possible, we can still get the "official" conversion by doing a little math: the Nutrition Facts label says a "serving" is "1/4 cup (30g)." That means there would be 120 grams in 1 cup. Since there are 453 grams in a pound, we can do a little division: 453 / 120 = 3.775 cups of powdered sugar in 1lb To make it simple, we'll round that down and call it 3.75. Therefore, according to Domino Sugar, there are approximately 3 3/4 cups of powdered sugar in a pound. (A word of warning: there's a reason recipes call for weight instead of volume, particularly in things like flour and powdered sugar --… [cont.]

What is cup equivalent of a box of powdered sugar?
Q. I have a receipe that calls for a box of powdered sugar and I only have a bag.
Asked by c_donavant - Sat Dec 2 15:52:39 2006 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. These can come in different sizes, but the typical size is a 1 lb. box or bag which is the same as 2 cups. If your bag is a 1 lb. bag you should be good. Otherwise, measure it out to 2 cups and that ought to be right. How old is your recipe? Most modern recipes will tell you exactly how much of something instead of leaving it up to you to guess how big a "box" or "can" of something ought to be.

Powdered coffee creamer poll Put in the cup before before the coffee?
Q. I've tried it both ways. When you put the powdered creamer in AFTER the coffee and stir, it clumps together like snot on a frozen morning. When you put the powdered creamer in BEFORE the coffee and stir, the coffee does a nice job de-solving the creamer and little energy is needed to stir. For those of you who use real cream from a cow, don't feel left out. Better Questions: Clean & lame >or< Filthy & naughty?

A. You sure can just pour the amount of water in a mesuring cup that the recipe calls for milk then add at the rate of one heaping 1/3 cup of powdered milk to each cup of water. I like to make up the milk ahead of time at the rate of 3/4 cup of water and 1/3 cup powdered milk. I hope this helps. jim b

A. That would be too much cream cheese and it would never dry enough to package. I have a recipe which I use on my cutout sugar cookies. It does not dry hard like royal icing does but is firm enough you can stack them or package them. It is very tasty. This recipe calls for Crisco but you could use cream cheese in place of it and still have a slight cream cheese taste to your icing and yet they would dry to be packaged. cutout cookie icing 3 egg whites, at room temp. Whip 2 min., fast speed or until stiff. Add: 1/2 tsp. almond extract 1 tsp. vanilla 1 lb. powdered sugar (1 box) Mix. Add, 2 TBS. Crisco Mix on low speed until smooth.

A. If you are out of powdered sugar, put regular sugar in the blender and process on high until it turns powdery. Be sure to stir up the sugar on the bottom a couple of times so it all turns out to be the same consistency. Measure out the amount needed for your recipe! Hope this helps :0)

A. Powdered milk is a product that you can add water to create milk. It doesn't taste as good as the liquid form, but it is cheaper...it was used a lot during the depression years because it is fairly inexpensive. Carnation and I think Nestle make powdered milk. It is found in the section where you buy evaporated milk, condensed milk, soy milk (not in the cold section).

Q. Is there a difference between canned broth (like swanson chicken broth), broth/bouillon cubes (like maggi cubes where you dissolve 1 cube per 1 cup water), and powdered broth? Or can they be used interchangeably. Like if a recipe calls for 1 cup chicken broth, can I use a cube and 1 cup water?

A. You can use them all interchangably! there are minute flavor differences, but for the most part they are just plain easier to do if that is what you have. I keep the cubes for instant soup broths rather than taking up pantry space with cans of broth or making fresh broth every time.
