I buy the commercial bags but wanted to messure a pound for making color flow (never made it before) icing, just need one batch for a trial run.
I'm guessing about 4 or 5 cups. Does it need to be exacct for color flow?
TIA

And I'm thinking yes, you would need to be exact.

Not necessarily...as long as you know what consistency you're looking for. I agree with the others: 4 cups=1 #.

On the one pound box of Domino's powdered sugar it states that the box contains approx 3 3/4 cups.

Technically, 3 3/4 C = 1 lb of powdered sugar....but I use 4 C = lb!
