About this conversion
Cups to grams for sugar is essential when using US baking recipes with a metric scale. White granulated sugar weighs 200 g per cup. Brown sugar, when packed, is slightly heavier at 220 g per cup. Icing sugar (powdered sugar) is much lighter at 120 g per cup due to its fine texture and air content. Use the ingredient dropdown above to switch between sugar types. Sugar measurements affect texture and sweetness significantly — accurate gram weights give more consistent baking results than cup measures, which vary depending on how the sugar settles.
