    I tried to verify their ads. I can't find the articles in Southern Living and Washington Post (their sites). And I can't find it on the Whole Foods website. Here is a review from Amazon: Tastes like sugar, because it IS sugar.
    And if you are giving this to diabetics and telling them it's a substitute for sugar, have a good lawyer at hand.

    The one client was forwarded the website, same client wanted regular baked goods to begin with, I never told them it's a "substitute".

    isn't the serving size for powdered sugar much larger than the serving size for regular sugar? I think a tsp is the serving for regular sugar. Powdered might be 1/4 of a cup.
    *Powdered sugar is just regular sugar put in a blender - it fluffs up, bulks up, looks bigger. So the serving size has to be bigger.

    No. It's the opposite. The grains of powdered sugar are smaller than grains of regular sugar so there is less empty space in the same volume of powdered sugar as granulated. In other words, there is more sugar in a teaspoon of powdered sugar than in a teaspoon of granulated sugar.
