icing sugar
Finely milled sweetener
Icing sugar is the British term for powdered sugar—granulated sugar ground to a fine powder, often with a small amount of cornstarch to prevent clumping.
It dissolves almost instantly, making it ideal for icings, frostings, and dustings: She sifted icing sugar over the cake.
Americans call it confectioners' sugar or powdered sugar.
