What is Frosting Sugar?

I have a recipe for cake frosting that calls for"one box of frosting sugar". Is this powdered sugar? Is there a standard amount for a "box" of frosting sugar? I have powdered sugar on hand but don't know the measurement of a "box of frosting sugar". Thank you for your time!

ANSWER:

Yes, the "frosting sugar" referred to in the recipe is powdered sugar, also called confectioners' sugar. The standard cup measurement for a 1 pound box of powdered sugar is 1 pound (16 ounces) or 4 cups.
