Yes, but I was asking the OP what HE used the sugar ground in the blender
for. He said it met his needs. I grind sugar to reduce particle size if I
am making an "important" cake batter (wedding of a relative, for example)
but have never produced anything close to the consistency of commercially
available confectioner's sugar. The stuff I've produce wouldn't be good for
frosting. That's why I was asking. Furthermore, when I do need
confectioner's sugar, I often need two pounds or more. I can't imagine
grinding 10 cups+ of sugar in the blender!
