Recipe calls for powdered sugar that i do not have can i use something else?
I don't think many recipes that need powdered sugar would work with a substitute, but you can make powdered sugar if you have a food processor. Put granulated sugar in the food processor and a little corn starch (about one teaspoon of corn starch to one cup of sugar). Run the food process for several minutes checking periodically to see if the sugar is fine enough. When it's powdery you can use it in your recipe.

Can you replace superfine sugar for powdered sugar?
Powdered sugar has a buffering agent in it that keeps it fluffy and prevents lumps. This means that powdered sugar has a finer texture but doesn't work well in clear drinks, as they won't remain clear, even when the sugar dissolves. Superfine sugar is pure sugar, intended to dissolve easily. It does however have a slightly crunchier texture. So, if you don't mind the texture change, you can substitute superfine when the recipe calls for powedered sugar, but not the other way around.
Can you use granulated sugar instead of powerderd?
Granulated sugar shouldn't be used as a substitute where powdered sugar is specified in a recipe; granulated sugar will be too coarse.
Can you substitute powdered sugar for granulated sugar in a pecan pie recipe?
I guess you could - just use twice as much. But it might make the filling cloudy-looking. MUCH better to substitute the same amount of brown sugar (1 c. if the recipe calls for 1 c. of granulated sugar). Brown sugar has a hint of molasses that makes the pecan pie richer.
Can you use powdered sugar when making fudge?
Yes you can. It's the only way I've ever made fudge. Most powdered sugar packages have a recipe for fudge. Once you've successfully learned to make fudge from powdered sugar, there's one more thing you can learn that will have people begging for more. The exact same recipe for fudge made from powdered sugar, is also the recipe for fudge frosting. The only difference is that you don't cook the fudge. Just mix the recipe and spread it on your cakes or cookies. The recipe that I use is on the link below.
