Default powdered sugar?

What type or brand do you use? Do you buy that icing sugar they have out or store bought?

I buy the big bags of Baker's & chef's sugar at Sam's Club. If I'm out and am in a pinch I'll buy aldi's powdered sugar or go to walmart. I have tried many different sugars and never noticed a difference in any of them. So I get the most for my buck! :-)

I really like dominos powdered sugar and regular too due to the extra smooth and small grains. I just get a smoother not gritty icing from them. versus he others I have tried.

I also go by the best deal since I have not noticed mush of a difference. They all have cornstarch and none tell you what percent of it they use, so it's kind of hard to really know which is of better quality. I would think only businesses that specialize in quality foods would be of any help to know this difference.

Kitchen krafts.com sells an icing sugar but I havent tried it since it is like 4.00 a pound!
But I use what works best for me and let it go at that really. Dont have much choice really.

Wish I could say the same here...we have some crappy brands for some reason.
