Greetings all
 
Back when extender patties (vegetable oil, sugar, Terramycin) were first
being used, the sugar usually specified in the recipes was powdered, as
in confectioner's. Today I notice that some recipes for extender patties
and most recipes for oil and sugar patties for mite treatment specify
granulated sugar. Why? Is it because of the starch in powdered sugar or
is there something more?
 
I have also seen reference to making your own powdered sugar by running
granulated through a blender. Has anyone done this and is there an
advantage?
