| Icing Sugar Market Projected Growth Rate (2022 to 2032) | 6.78% CAGR |
Icing sugar, also called powdered sugar or confectioners' sugar is a finely powered form of sugar added with anticaking agent like corn starch or potato starch. It is usually produced by milling granulated sugar across large manufacturing industries. The addition of starch helps to absorb moisture, prevents clumping and improves flow.
Over the last few years, icing sugar has gained immense traction across food production industries where quick dissolving sugar is required. It is being increasingly used in baking and confectionery applications, dessert making and quick preparation of juices, milkshakes and other beverages on account of its ability to easily dissolve in liquids.
The fine texture of icing sugar makes it suitable for dusting over cakes, pastries, and pies to sweeten them as well as to add an attractive decorative touch. It can also be used to make icing and fondants for sweets and cakes. The icing sugar, however, has to be used within a short period of time to minimize the risk of caking.
Rising consumption of bakery and confectionery products across the globe due to changing eating habits, rapidly growing population and increasing spending by people will continue to provide a strong thrust to the growth of icing sugar market during the forecast period.
