Need Your Help With An Ingredient

I was given a one pound box of lemon, strawberry and chocolate powdered sugar.  What would you do with them?  I'm thinking a one pound box of each flavor isn't enough of either one to do much of anything productive?  And I'm wondering if the flavor would be too "watered down" if I mixed each flavor with a pound of regular powdered sugar to stretch each flavor.

 I don't think it would be powdered down  (LOL) but you could make sugar cookies, mix the flavors each with just enough water to make a paste and ice the cookies.

Why didn't I think of icing?!  Duh!  Thank you!

I think that would have a nice subtle flavor.

 Yeah I was thinking it sounds quite yummy!  That would be nice for a party.  Just make all 3 flavors.  Are they different colors? If not you could add a bit of dye.

They are actually in boxes which I've never seen before so I have no idea what color they are.  I dunno.

I've never seen that before.  If you don't go the icing route your could make the "snowball" cookies and roll them in the flavored sugars.

I would use them as frosting, on crepes, on French toast, or in sugar cookies.

You can make a buttercream frosting with one box- add some butter and warm water and mix well.

Good idea. Russian teacakes, for example.
