How to Make Powdered Sugar

Ever been in the middle of baking a cake, then realized you’re out of powdered sugar? With a Blendtec, you don’t need to run off to the store! Simply blend regular granulated sugar on a Medium speed for 5–10 seconds to make perfect powdered sugar.

  • Step 2: Blend on Medium speed for 5–10 seconds until you’ve reached your desired texture.
  • Step 3: Use in any baking project, or even as a topping for French toast!

How to Crumble Cheese

Crumbled cheese is a great addition to your favorite salads and pastas—and with a Blendtec, you can crumble any hard cheese in seconds! Pulse any hard cheese—such as cheddar, parmesan, or feta—in your Blendtec blender to make the perfect crumble.

How to Crumble Cheese

  • Step 1: Add any hard cheese to your Blendtec jar and secure the lid.
  • Step 2: Pulse until you’ve reached your desired texture.
  • Step 3: Enjoy sprinkled on pasta, salad, or in a quiche.

How to Make Crushed Ice

Did you know that the Blendtec is the only blender on the market that can crush ice into a fine snow without adding water or any other steps? That's right! And it is done in a matter of seconds! We'll tell you how to turn ice into snow.

For best results, use ice cubes directly from freezer that have not begun to melt.
