Snow Sugar (Dusting Sugar)
Icing sugar tends to dissolve when frozen, thawed, chilled, wrapped or in high humidity conditions. Snow sugar is made from dextrose rather than sucrose, which is encapsulated to stop it from dissolving when used for dusting. Snow sugar is Ideal used instead of icing sugar for dusting cakes such as doughnuts, stollen and sponges where they are to be wrapped or frozen, or just kept in the fridge for a little while.
Note that the ingredients in this product can make it tend to form clumps in the bag. The product is completely fine - it has simply settled in the bag - you might need to knock the clumps out with a spoon before use.
Application: sprinkle liberally onto the warm cake.
