W-H-A-T? Shocked Is it true is C&H powdered sugar really discontinued. First crisco changes it's formula & now C&H issues. Oh please someone out there please tell me it isn't true!

I just use whatever is on sale. I haven't found that much of difference, but then again, I haven't been doing this that long.

I shop at an odd little grocery store called Aldi, and their store brand ps is great and cheap (less than $1 per bag). If I can't get to Aldi, I get whichever brand is cheapest. I've never been able to tell a difference between that and a name brand variety.

I used to only use C & H, but once my store was out and I used the Wal-Mart (Great Value) brand and I couldn't tell the difference. That's all I use now.

I use C & H powered sugar, but looks like I will have to find another brand, if C & H is discontinued. Is the store discontinuing it or is C & H stopping?

Nothing but Imperial 10X for me because I never have to sift it. It is ultra fine. Kroger carries their brand of 10X and the couple of times Target was sold out of the Imperial I have purchased theirs. I hear it is made by Imperial for Kroger.............it looks and acts the same as the "Imperial" brand and both are about the same price.

For me it's Dixie Crystals. It seems to taste better than the store brands, I have tried them all.

Bakers & Chefs brand from Sam's. Occasionally I will pick up Great Value or Imperial sugar from Wal-Mart...both of which work equally well. They sell so much of it that the product is always very fresh and not clumpy. Smile

I always use dixie crystals. I get it at wal mart, and it's either that, store brand, or domino. I think me and cakelover are the only ones out there that use this kind. I've read a lot of posts about ps and cakelover is the first I've seen mention this brand. Is it only available certain areas or what?
