Icing Sugar
What is icing sugar? Is pure natural icing sugar healthier than regular sugar? As with brown sugar, some people seem to believe that icing sugar is somehow better for us than just regular white sugar.
“Natural� brown sugar contains molasses and trace amounts of some minerals that you can easily obtain from a diet, so it does not provide any health benefits.
The icing sugar, also known as powdered sugar or confectioners’ sugar – is finely ground white sugar used to decorate those delicious cupcakes that we all love. It does not even contain trace amounts of minerals found in brown sugar.
So nutritionally speaking, icing sugar is exactly the same as regular white sugar. And do not get any ideas about cupcakes, we better stay away from them – well, most of the time.
