Glutino Pure Icing Sugar

I just bought Glutino Icing Sugar (www.glutino.com). However, it has no directions on how to prepare it since it definately needs something done with it since it is just very finely ground sugar. I was thinking of adding water, does anyone know how to prepare this? Also, I was wondering why I would buy Gluten-Free Sugar when I could use Confectioner's Sugar and make icing too...does the latter contain gluten or what is the difference of this icing?

Any help would be very much appreciated since I am hoping to prepare cupcakes this weekend.

Thanks in advance.

yep, you usually add just a little tiny bit of water to get it to the consistency you want. milk is fairly common, but I've used orange juice for the flavor of it as well.

I haven't tried this particular product and am not gluten free yet- BUT!

I am a baker and make tons of icing.. some brands of powdered/confectioners/icing sugar (all names for fine sugar) have things in them to make them stay nice and powdery... these items vary, but from an icing making experience standpoint- the ones that work best are just pure sugar and cornstarch.. and that is gluten free.. I tend to buy Meijer Brand in 4 pound bags on a regular basis!

I am waiting to go gluten free until my test results come back and they do the biopsy...

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
