Kosher for Passover Confectioners Sugar

One of our alert readers just read the ingredients for Domino’s Confectionary Sugar and found that one of the ingredients is cornstarch. We checked our own pantry and found C&H powdered sugar also contains cornstarch.

If you can’t find Kosher for Passover Confectionary sugar, here’s how you can make your own:

Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar
• 1-1/2 tsp. potato starch

Directions

Blend in food processor until desired consistency is reached. Use the “pulse” setting to avoid burning the sugar.
