Homemade sugar free powdered sugar aka confectioners sugar is so easy to make and all you need is just one ingredient and one equipment.
A low carb sugar free powdered sugar is a very important staple in the low carb kitchen. Because Most low carb sweeteners don't dissolve easily, some low carb recipes require the powdered form of low carb sweeteners which cost a little more than the un-powdered/ granular versions.
So if you already have some sugar substitute at home then you are just 2 mins or less away from getting your own homemade sugar free powdered sugar.
Here is why you should be making your own homemade sugar free powdered sugar.
- It is cheaper to make yours
- You get the best of two worlds for the cost of one. ( You can blend half of the bag and leave the other half unblended.)
- You can make your own sweetener blend like a mix of stevia and erythritol.
- Just because you can ?
What can I use this Homemade Sugar free confectioners sugar for?
Oh a lot.....
- In your bullet proof coffeeKeto got chocolate
- Low carb/Keto Cheese Cake
- Low carb/Keto frosting
- Low carb/ Keto condensed milk
- Low carb ice cream
This homemade sugar free powdered sugar stores well so you can make a large batch if want and store in an air tight container in a cool dry place. Now if you really don't want to make yours swerve is a good one to use. I used swerve powered sweetener a lot before buying my coffee grinder. A nutri bullet works well too.

What does monk fruit sweetener taste like?
On its own, monk fruit is much sweeter than regular sugar (over 200 times as sweet!). Lakanto uses a blend of monk fruit and erythritol in order to combine the benefits of each with none of the side effects. Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener tastes just like regular powdered sugar—it has a fine, powdery consistency and a more concentrated sweetness than regular granulated sugar.
How should I use Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener for baking?
Many recipes work better if the powdered sugar is sifted first. The same principle applies to Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener! It may form clumps during storage, so sifting can help it incorporate more smoothly into the mixture.
How does Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener dissolve in recipes?
Make sure to use a recipe that has liquid ingredients such as avocado oil, coconut oil, or butter, which will help dissolve the Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener. When baking at high altitudes, the final product may dry out more than at lower elevations; try adding a little more oil, yogurt, cream, or honey to help counterbalance the drying effect.
Use Lakanto Powdered Sweetener to make a sugar-free glaze
- You can make a sugar-free glaze using Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener and milk, water, or lemon juice.
- Start by using less Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener than the amount of powdered sugar called for in the regular recipe.
- As you mix the ingredients of the glaze, add powdered coconut milk to help bind the Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener with the liquid components
- This will give the glaze a fluid consistency and help to completely incorporate the sweetener.
How do I substitute Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener for regular sugar?
Many bakers recommend using a ratio of 1:1 granulated sugar to Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener. If you are substituting Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener for regular powdered sugar, it is designed to work as a cup-for-cup replacement, matching the sweetness and consistency of powdered sugar.
How do you make sugar-free icing or frosting?
For silky smooth buttercream icing, make sure the butter is completely softened. Using an electric hand or stand-mixer, whip the softened butter until it is light and fluffy. With the mixer going at a low but steady speed, slowly sift your Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener into the bowl. By making sure that all your ingredients have been properly prepared and incorporated, you can guarantee great results every time!
