How to make glaze with granulated sugar

A granulated sugar glaze is the perfect final touch for certain baked goods. While many glazes are created using powdered sugar, a perfectly wonderful glaze can be created using regular granulated white sugar and lemon juice, water or milk.

Erythritol is ideal as a substitute for powdered sugar for frosting or sprinkling on top of cakes. Swerve confectioners is a well-known brand based on erythritol and a very popular keto option. It's a 1:1 ratio as a replacement, so just use it as you would powdered sugar in any recipe.

It is possible to simply use granulated sugar in a slightly smaller amount, though you'll have to accept that the texture may not be ideal, especially for icing or other recipes that are supposed to be super smooth. Just substitute 1 cup of granulated sugar for every 1 ¾ cups powdered sugar and proceed as directed.
