I've looked but I can only find extra fine granulated sugar. DH complains that my scratch yellow & white cakes taste grainy to him. ??

Just grind them up in your food processor for a few seconds. Should do the trick.

Here in the Northwest I found it as Safeway, and the local grocer does as well. Possibly try a big food chain store and I find it near the sugar cubes, powdered sugar area.

The sugar in a cake batter will normally melt, superfine will melt faster.

The grainy texture is probably not from the sugar. (And sometimes, DH is not always the best judge.)

you can blend regular sugar in a food processor to make it superfine (saves a lot of money). But you might want to try a taste test using your favorite recipe vs a similar recipe or even a mix. And get another judge besides DH.

You may find that your recipe is better than you think.

Good Luck.

what brand it is so I know what to look for?

Hmm...food processor....I never would have thought of that! Thanks!

C&H is the brand I bought

that food processor trick is good. i have also read that you can add 2 tablespoons of hot water to the butter and sugar while creaming it and you will get a better texture....

i also dont think you are creaming it for long enough...try creaming it longer.

hoep this helps.
