10 X means how many times the powdered sugar was sifted.  It is a finer, silkier sugar.  Many sugars are 6X, meaning 6 times sifted.

Ah, thank you! So if I get regular confectioners sugar, should I sift it more?

I'm unsure as to the answer of your question but I make & use Nick L. paste all the time.  I've used 10X and 6X.  I will NOT use the 6x again - it's just not as smooth.

 

The recipe I have uses grams so I am unfamiliar with the posted measurements. I prefer a soft paste to begin with so I add 2 gm.  more egg white.  If I am doing something that needs to be stiffer I add more tylose as I need it.

I,ve used Nicks g/p for about 18 yrs. I make it just as the recipe calls for. I love to work with it. I love how it dries. I love wiltons premade (not the can) very much too. Somes i mix the two when i am teaching a day of sharing . Every one likes that also. hth
