Powdered Sugar - Homemade

As a general rule, I would NEVER recommend using refined white granulated sugar for anything, but when it comes to making homemade powdered sugar it is a must. You must also possess a food processor or superior blender. I have tried this recipe with many types of sugar, and evaporated cane juice is a passable option, but is not airy and light; organic light brown sugar works very well but of course comes out light brown.
