Yes. Selling something advertised as a prohibited product, whether or not it’s true, is technically a crime. Assuming we’re talking about the US, in most jurisdictions this would be treated just about the same as if you were actually selling the same volume of the advertised product. I believe the reasoning behind it is that even if it’s fake, you’re creating a market for the real product to be traded, or something like that.
So if you sell a 1 lb bag of flour calling it cocaine, you’d get charged as if you sold 1 lb of coke. The final judgement may not be as severe as actually selling a pound of coke, but the initial charges typically will be.
Also, flour and sugar do not look like coke or meth up close. It would be immediately obvious a user/seller the moment it’s in their hands, so this is also a really good way to get your ass kicked.
I’ve not handled meth, myself, but I know that coke usually clumps up into flakes that have a “fishscale” like appearance to them with the way light reflects off of it. That slightly pearlescent appearance is the first thing a buyer would be looking for, because there’s not a whole lot of other white powdery materials that look like that. It also clumps up with a consistency slightly similar to something like Comet cleaner, so it wouldn’t be as fine-grain as sugar or flour would be.
I dunno why I’m helping you disguise your fake drugs lmao, just be careful.

Never used the stuff but had it pop into my mind. I was just considering its all white.
