Powdered sugar without gluten

Gluten-free powdered sugar is a type of finely ground sugar commonly used in baking to provide sweetness and a smooth, silky texture to various preparations. It is characterized by its very fine, powder-like appearance, almost similar to talc, which allows it to dissolve easily in creams, icings, batters, and other desserts. Unlike conventional powdered sugar, this variety is certified as gluten-free, making it suitable for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.

Powdered sugar has its origins in traditional European production, where sugar was ground into a fine powder to achieve better results in pastry decorations and finishes. Today, it is produced all over the world and is a basic ingredient in many recipes for both baking and sweet cuisine.

Properties: in addition to its sweetness, gluten-free powdered sugar is ideal for dusting over desserts and preparing icings and meringues thanks to its superfine texture. It contains no traces of gluten, thus preventing adverse reactions in sensitive or allergic individuals, while maintaining all the functions and characteristics of traditional powdered sugar.

In different Latin American countries, this ingredient may also be found under the names gluten-free impalpable sugar, gluten-free sugar in powder form, or gluten-free pulverized sugar. All these names refer to the same form of finely ground sugar, suitable for those who require a gluten-free diet.
