What Can You Use Instead Of Powdered Sugar For Icing?
You can use granulated sugar, honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar instead of powdered sugar for making icing. However, you will need to dissolve the granulated sugar in a liquid (like milk or water) and then heat it to make the icing. Honey, maple syrup, and agave nectar can be used as is, but they will make the icing more runny and not as powdery as icing made with powdered sugar.
