What is sugar powder?

Sugar powder, also known as confectioners' sugar, powdered sugar, or icing sugar, is a finely ground form of granulated white sugar. It has a smooth texture and contains a small amount of corn starch to prevent caking. Sugar powder is often used in frostings, icings, glazes, and other sweet coatings, as it dissolves easily and creates a smooth consistency. It is also commonly used as a dusting on desserts, pastries, and other treats to add sweetness and visual appeal.
