Are royal icing and fondant the same thing?
Royal icing is a hard white icing, made from softly beaten egg whites, icing sugar (powdered sugar), and sometimes lemon or lime juice. Fondant icing is commonly used to decorate wedding cakes. It includes gelatin (or agar in vegetarian recipes) and food-grade glycerine, which keep the sugar pliable and creates a dough-like consistency.

About Sugar
Sugar is a natural sweetener. The white crystalline stuff we typically find in restaurants and in the sugar jar at home is processed and refined. Sugar from the Sugar Cane plant is typically brown in color and has more of a caramel flavor.
