How to convert cups of sugar to grams
Granulated sugar converts more consistently from cups to grams than flour because sugar granules don't compress as much. One US cup of granulated white sugar weighs approximately 200 grams.
Multiply cups by 200 to get grams. Formula: g = cups × 200. 1 cup sugar = 200 g. 1.5 cups = 300 g. 2 cups = 400 g.
Precise baking — especially patisserie and confectionery — benefits from gram measurements. Brown sugar packed into a cup weighs more (about 220 g); this converter uses granulated white sugar.
Quick reference: ½ cup = 100 g, ¼ cup = 50 g, 1 tbsp sugar ≈ 12.5 g.
