​MOO Icing Sugar - March 2018

This is unbelievably easy to do, and cost effective too. You can cross icing sugar off your shopping list when you know how to MOO it.

Here's how:
1. Place a cup of white sugar in the blender for each cup of icing sugar needed.

2. Blend at high speed until the sugar turns to powder - this can take 2 - 3 minutes. I stop the blender every minute or so and give the jug a shake, just to be sure all the sugar is powdered.

3. Use immediately, or store in an air-tight container. This makes pure icing sugar.

Tips:
1. To prevent caking and improve thickening ability (important when making icing), add 1-2 tablespoons of corn flour for each cup of icing sugar made. This makes icing sugar mixture, the most common used in baking. Use this mixture exactly as you would bought icing sugar mixture.

2. Sugar may etch your blender pitcher, particularly if it's made of plastic. If this is a concern, use a coffee grinder or spice grinder instead.
