Icing Sugar
Whatsapp Order
Icing Sugar, also known as powdered sugar or confectioners’ sugar, is a finely ground sugar with a powdery consistency. It is typically made by milling granulated sugar into a fine powder and blending it with a small amount of anti-caking agent (usually cornstarch or tricalcium phosphate) to prevent clumping. Icing Sugar is white, odorless, and has a sweet taste. It is widely used in baking, confectionery, and culinary applications to provide sweetness, texture, and decorative finishes.

Bakery Salt
Product Description
Bakery salt is a finely ground, food-grade salt specifically processed for use in baking and food preparation. It is characterized by its purity, consistent grain size, and minimal additives to ensure it blends evenly in doughs and batters. Bakery salt enhances flavor, improves dough texture, controls yeast fermentation, and extends the shelf life of baked goods. Due to its fine granules, it dissolves quickly and evenly, making it ideal for commercial and home baking applications.
Blueberry Toppings
Blueberry Toppings are sweet, fruit-based condiment preparations made primarily from blueberries, sugar, and thickening agents. They are characterized by a vibrant blue-purple color, fruity aroma, and a sweet-tart flavor profile. Typically semi-viscous with chunks or pureed pieces of blueberry, these toppings are used as finishing ingredients in desserts, breakfast foods, and beverages. Blueberry toppings may be prepared as preserves, syrups, or glazes and often contain natural flavors and preservatives to enhance shelf life and sensory appeal.
