This is a perfect accessory to my small scale kitchen. Some of the reviews said that it was “difficult to use” but I just don’t think they figured out how to use it properly. I found that inverting it completely upside down caused the powdered sugar to clog, but if you just tilt the shaker at about a 45º angle, it works wonders.

Ateco products never fail. This shaker is durable and can take a few beatings in a bakery. I don't find that the sugar will ever clump or get stuck but if you do happen to forget your shaker in a moist or warm area, just add a small handful of rice into the shaker and it will loosen up the sugar for you.

This stainless steel shaker is a steal. Very lightweight and the powdered sugar or flour come out evenly. I wish they have a handle but overall it’s a nice product

Easy to use and great to have in a busy kitchen to dress up a dish before sending it out to the customers. Just a simple shake and it gives you just enough to finish off the plate. We love to use powdered sugar and ground cinnamon in these.

typical powdered sugar shaker that can double for fine spices, doesn't dispense too quickly and is easy to control the amount that comes out. I use it for white pepper.

These are a little smaller than expected, but they look great and work great. The lid stays on securely, but can be quickly removed for easy filling. You can put all kinds of stuff in these.

It says powdered sugar but don't let that limit you. We use these for any powder we want to dust on top of food or baked goods. We even use a couple for house made meat seasonings. They are sturdy and work well for our needs.

We wanted to love this shake but we just didn't. We found it difficulty to get the powdered sugar out at times and made more of a mess than it did help.

I hated having to use a sieve to do powdered sugar because of how messy it gets. This canister is perfect for a controlled snow of sugar and it serves as storage as well.

This shaker puts a fine dusting of powdered sugar, cocoa or cinnamon on any item. The mesh ensures clumps are no problem, and that an item isn't caked in what you have chosen to use it for. Stainless Steel makes it look stylish and clean well. Great for bakeries, coffee shops, or anywhere there is a self service coffee bar.

Great shaker for a great price. I just wish the mesh was a little less fine. You really have to give this a shake to get any out. I went back to a sifter when working with fondant.

The Ateco 4 ounce stainless steel powdered sugar shaker is good for dispensing confectioners sugar in a "dusting" style. The stainless steel construction makes this easy to clean as well.

We were using a metal strainer to shake powder sugar on our pastries but was wasting so much powder sugar and making a mess. Who knew this little shaker would not only save us money but time as well.

This powdered sugar shaker is beautiful and convenient. My kids sugar everything when I’m not looking, so having the shaker handy really saves on clean up. The mesh in the lid is very fine, so make sure your sugar has no lumps before putting it in the shaker.

this stainless steel powdered sugar shaker doesn't need to be used for just powdered sugar. we use these units filled with salt mixtures and even flour.
