Question 1

Do I need to add cornflour like in store-bought icing sugar?

Accepted Answer

No, cornflour is sometimes added to store-bought icing sugar to prevent it from clumping. See above storage tips and sieve the icing sugar before use for the best results.

Question 2

Why is my icing sugar not fine enough?

Accepted Answer

If the texture of your icing sugar is not to your liking, just mill again in 30 second increments.

Question 3

Can I make a big batch of icing sugar at once?

Accepted Answer

For best results, mill no more than 250g at a time. It's quick to repeat if you need a larger amount.
