Signing UpStep 1: You need stuff...
Grab a package of Oreos or similar double-sided cookie with creme stuffing in the middle. Would even work with Vanilla Wafers but then I would have to come up with another punny name.
You will need:
Instant coffee - whatever brand you like, there is espresso powder also
Non-dairy creamer powder - any flavor - not really necessary but can add bulk and flavor to the mix
Confectioners sugar ( castor sugar in the UK?) - this is the fine stuff mistaken for that other stuff, do not inhale
Shortening - lard-like substance made by various industrial edible oil cracking processes

In the UK and in Australia, (where I am) confectioners sugar is called Icing Sugar. There are two kinds.. Icing sugar (has a bit of cornflour added to it) and Pure Icing Sugar (which, duh, is pure sugar).
Yeah, don't ask me why.
We also don't generally do 'creamers'..if you want cream in your coffee..you use real cream...from a cow. But mostly, people just use milk...yes, from a cow.
Otherwise they drink it black.
I have TRIED to find dairy free creamer for recipes over hear..yeah..still looking.
So not sure what substitute you could use for that, cos its a tad more difficult than the whole confectioners sugar thingy. Powdered product for very very wet one...hmmm.
Oh..and one other tip, is that UK and Australia don't do really do Crisco either (well, I've never seen it here)..but we DO have this awesome stuff called Copha, which is a vegetable (coconut) shortening. Which I am TOLD you can get over in the states at Wholefoods if you are lucky.
Anyways, I share all this intercontinental knowledge with you, as you made reference to Caster Sugar. Caster sugar is actually what Wikipedia tells me you guys call superfine white sugar.
