    Sorry for taking so long to find your comment. I use regular white granulated sugar in this frosting and for the cake batter. You are going to cooking the sugar mixture for the frosting so please use the granulated sugar.
    Thank you for trying the recipe.

    I've been wanting to make this yummy cake for the longest time. Thanks for posting the recipe! My one question is what kind of sugar did you use? Was it confectioner's sugar or regular granulated sugar? Thanks again.
