Buying bulk sugar and then using it to make three other types of sugar products saves you heaps of money. Follow these simple steps to make your own.

❤ this 😊 - Taking a single staple product and turning it into 3 other products is the perfect video for teaching people who are learning how to live without a grocery store. Thank you.
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching ❤️
Bizarre that the other sugars are SO much more expensive ❣ Especially in South Africa 🇿🇦. Thank you, Stacey.
The “black thingy stick”. Makes me think Stacy is referring to a Vitamix blender.
You should have your own TV cooking show
Yet again, you have taught me something new and helpful! I will be making my own sugars from now on!
Looking forward to the condiments when you make them.
I hope you have a lovely, pain-free day! 😊
Thank you, my friend, I hope you have a lovely day as well. I'm catching up on housework today.
Thank you for showing us how to make these sugars, very helpful 🎉
Thank you I went looking for this vid after hearing you talk about it in another vid - love that I know what's in my stuff and 1 jar of molasses clearly makes heaps of brown sugar which is always darer than white - cheers Stacey
Thank you for the instructions! In the U.S. caster sugar is called superfine sugar and icing sugar is called powdered sugar or confectioner's sugar. Looking forward to the mustard video when you get around to it. By the way, plain American mustard is called yellow mustard as it is made with yellow mustard seeds rather than black or brown mustard seeds. 🙂
Thank you 😊
Thank you Stacey, really no need to buy icing sugar or caster any more will definietly make my own from now on, English call it icing sugar but in Spain where I live its azucar glace, all meaning the same thing. xx
Here in the UK we call them icing and caster sugars. Thank you for taking the time to do this video. I have a vitamix and that will be really good at blitzing the sugar 😊
Wow did know that about make Icing Sugar and brown sugar out of just good old plan sugar thankyou so much 🎉
You are wonderful. You saved me a trip to the shop to buy icing sugar for my grandson's birthday cake. I used my Magic Bullet and it worked perfectly. Thank you!
I never thought of making my own mustard, am definitely going to give this a go! Ginny🙂
Wow! I had no idea they were all from white sugar! I always thought brown sugar was healthier; obviously not 😂
Well, it kind of is, as molasses have lots of good nutrients in it.
I always need brown sugar for recipes and don’t have any, so now I can make them all so great recipes thank you. I am in England UK and we call the sugars icing and caster too.
Love your channel and am binging your back videos now so sorry if you get weird comment from a year ago🤣
I watch u all the time in the north east UK u r brilliant keep up the great recipes.
Thanks so much
One correction. Maize is naturally gluten free. In corn starch you need to watch for fillers or if it was produced in a factory that handles wheat and other grains.
I can't believe brown sugar is so easy! I even have a jar of blackstrap molasses in the pantry. I love my trusty old Kenwood too. So handy being able to make pure icing sugar as needed, the store bought likes to turn into a rock if it sits unused for any length of time.
I found you the other day. Have watched a few if your videos. I'm 50 and my kids had moved out but wish you were around when I was always cooking/baking .lol I'm now gluten, dairy, carb and sugar free. I never knew about the sugars. Thank you!
What you made is pure icing sugar which when mixed with egg white or water will go hard , icing sugar that has anti caking agent will remain soft
Makes me want to just add molasses and white sugar separately in a recipe to save time lol
I have my grandmother's agee jars. She would have had them from the early 1930s.
Just found your channel.
Glad I did, you have a lot to teach me.
Thank you 😊
You are so welcome, Thanks for joining us
Well learnt something I didn’t know. Thanks heaps.
I needed brown sugar during the covid pandemic so l had to use RUclips now l know how to make it but l didn't know about the icing & caster sugar. We buy the 5kg sugar now l know how to do all 3 l won't need to buy either one of them any more, thank you thank you thank you
I am a little behind with knowledge, but not anymore, this is wonderful , thank you so much, still watching your videos God Bless
I so enjoyed this video. I've learned something new. I'm going to make my own brown, and powered sugar from now on. I love that Thermamix machine. Hope your knee is getting better
I'm so pleased you enjoyed the video. The thermomix is amazing. You should Google what it can do. It even cooks meals. Thanks for the well wishes. The new medicine is helping.
I love watching you, you make things so easy to do.
And lots of good tips.
I also make caster sugar and iceing sugar but never thought to make brown sugar. Thank you -you have made my day. I am so glad I am not the only one who uses a Kenwood. Diolch from Wales
Great video!
What are your must have kitchen gadgets if you were starting from scratch? Loved the old Kenwood with the new paddle!
If you had the money to invest in a Thermomix, you would only need that. It does so many things, including cooking, slow cooker, blender, the list goes on. It even cleans itself. However, I couldn't part with my old Kenwood.
Thank you ❤️ I hate throwing out bricks of brown sugar . Now I can make my own and what a bonus it won’t go hard in the airtight container like the shop stuff does
I never had brown sugar get hard if I store it in its original bag. If I move it to a different container - uh oh! If it goes hard, just Pop it in the microwave for a few seconds.
But also have done home brown sugar frequently.
I always put a brad slice into the container I keep my brown sugar in and it never gets hard. If the bread slice dries out after a few months, I just replace it. That being said, I am definitely going to make my own sugars following Stacey's instructions. 😊
@@lindacbenson4400 I’ve even put marshmallows when bread didn’t work but never worked, always rock hard 🤣
Thankyou for more useful tips my new kitchen goes in in 2weeks cant wait to stock it up after camp cooking for two months and to have all my jars out again Hope your knee is feeling better😊
Wonderful! I bet you can't wait either!
Someone else already said it, but you were thinking of a Vitamix and yes, I have one. I got mine "refurbished" on Amazon several years ago for half of the normal price, and it came with the same warranty as brand new, so I saved over $250! I have a 6 qt Kitchenaid as well, and while I do love it, I am always on the hunt for a vintage Bosch.
This is so helpful, and I will be using this! I always have molasses on hand, LOVE IT on oatmeal, and while I've always used raw sugar in my coffee, I've switched over to molasses. I like that it actually has nutrients in it. Always looking for nutrient-dense foods, especially those that help with the migraines. And I actually prefer the molasses in my coffee - it makes it seem like a "fancy coffee" LOL
Hope your knee is doing better and that you aren't pushing yourself too hard. It's always good to see your face! Love & BIG HUGS to you and Husband!
That's a great buy you got on the Vitamix! I always liked the look of the Bosch as well.
Great point about the molasses, but I will take your word for it as I hate coffee, lol
I've been catching up on housework but started to get sore, so your comment came just at the right time to remind me not to overdo it!
I hope you are getting your huge to-do list done without overdoing it yourself. X
@@FarmersWifeHomestead yes, you seemed very chipper and effervescent, so I JUST KNEW you were on the brink of over-doing LMAO! I did accomplish most everything on my list but I feel like a need a couple days off because I don't know what happened to my weekend! But the car is ready for check in first thing tomorrow morning, I guess I'll just chill when I get home from work tomorrow.
LMAO, woman! 🤣
I'm glad you got everything ready and I hope work tomorrow is much easier than last week.
Plus one on the Vitamix. Ours has been going for 10 years now and still blasting out soups and nut butters as if it were brand new. You got an absolute bargain there!
I really enjoy your videos, I like you. I subscribed. New Zealand is on my bucket list of places to travel to, beautiful there. Thanks for sharing this with us. Also I like that your kitchen is small because mine is too and the things I get up to in there make it a busy, tiny little place to cook. I can relate. ❤
Edit for reference I'm in the US in California. Way far away, isn't it neat to see how far your videos go? 😊 Also that's what we call here, Yellow Mustard.
Well done Stacey👏❤️
Love Thermomix. My wife has 2
Thankyou! Wow! An eye opener for me
Uk calls it icing sugar, caster sugar, granulated sugar
El molinillo eléctrico de café también hace un azúcar glas excelente. Muchas gracias por su tiempo y su trabajo. Un abrazo fuerte desde Barcelona.
Hello, and thank you for watching. Yes, they do make great grinders. Thank you for pointing that out. 😊
Food Processor which has the black central spike. or a stick blender.
Live this so much..A...mazing how much we don't know..Definitely doing this..Thanking you..Have subscribed..( NZ)
Awesome! Thank you!
Stick blenders? I’m super excited to see how you make these sugars. I live in Portugal but I’m British and cannot buy caster sugar here plus icing sugar is expensive. Thanks so much love your videos.
I knew about the sugar and molasses, but the other two very interesting, also, my mum used treacle, when molasses wasn’t available.
I think the mixer your looking for if called Vita Mix- in Canada and the US- thats the one i have now using it for 20 years. Still going strong. Greetings from Canada
Don't have the fancy gadgets? I just use a fork and keep working in the molasses till its incorporated. Or some times i just take the shortcut and put some molasses in with wet ingredients and stir it in and then just add sugar after. Seems to work fine for me
Yes, when I run out I do the same thing. Or if I need dark brown sugar, just add a little more molasses.
Wow thanks a lot. Learner cooks like me don't have the gadgets. 🫕
I really like that machine! Thermomax, did she call it? It’s sooooo fast!
❤❤❤
We call it icing sugar in Canada, no idea what caster sugar is. I make both brown and icing sugar all the time. Isn't maize just corn? If so then it is gluten free. Do you mean a blender? I use about 1 tablespoon of molasses to 1 cup of sugar for light brown sugar.
Oh I found the sugar video thank you
If you keep showing people ways to avoid buying stuff, the food industry are going to try to cancel you - you're hitting them where it hurts 😂👋👋 I've been doing this forever - as did my mum and her mum. It's not only cheaper, but, if you don't use icing sugar or brown sugar very often, there's no need to store either - just make it up when a recipe calls for it. Super space saving method.
I'm going to get some molasses and make some brown sugar 😂😂 and shock my husband 😂😂😂 I'm not really a country girl or make own stuff. And 55 when I learned this ❤
Love this! you go, girl :-)
Interesting , didn’t know that it was that easy to do
Super simple aye. Thanks for watching.
great....thanks !
Glad you liked it!
have you done a price comparrision?would be interest to know love your videos
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Hint - for last minute quick brown sugar - just add a bit of molasses to your recipe. voila!
Yes, I certainly do this as well when hubby has used all the brown sugar for the bacon hahaha
@@FarmersWifeHomestead Mmmm cooked bacon dredged in brown sugar wrapped around a whole water chestnut. Make a tray of them and place under the broiler to brown them. They absolutely disappear fast at parties,
Immersion blender?
I'm thinking a Vitamix as that's America's favourite blender.
Vitamix is the one I was thinking of. An immersion blender might work as well.
Yes that's the one I was trying to get out lol
It's much cheaper to buy caster sugar and turn it into brown and icing sugar
Vitamix
How much regular sugar does it take to make 1 cup of powder sugar?
Good question, because I've never measured before I'm not sure of the answer. If I were to guess, maybe two cups to make one.
In our house the thing you can’t remember the name of is……the Zizzer
Vitamix machine
Definitely icing sugar and caster sugar here in the UK too. Can I use black treacle instead of molasses do you know. I'm not sure if it is the same thing or not.
I was thinking the same thing........uk here too 🌹
Vitamix???
It is called icing sugar in Canada also. Caster sugar is not available here.
I think you're talking about a stickblender. Maybe.
Can you make brown sugar with castor sugar, please Stacey?
If you want to. It is still white sugar but it will just have a smaller texture.
Have you tried making your brown sure with your castor sugar?
You could if you wanted a finer brown sugar
Where do you go for your bulk here in NZ? Also this is so good!!
I go to Gilmours, but down south of the North Island, it's Moore Wilson. Davis Trading is another.
@@FarmersWifeHomestead Brill, thank you.
🎉 Vitamix Blender 🎉 😂.
Me again, just realised I have a extra bag of icing sugar that I hardly use, anything I can make to use this up, and can I use it in baking instead of white sugar , would there be a difference thx
Hello, yes you can use it up if you like. Just check it doesn't have corn flour in the ingredients as some do. Otherwise, that won't really work.
Stick mixer
Immersion stick I call it.
Vitamix
