How to Measure Granulated Sugar Correctly

💡

Granulated sugar should be spooned and leveled, not packed. It does not compress like brown sugar.

💡

For the most accurate sugar measurement, use a kitchen scale. 1 cup of granulated sugar weighs approximately 200g.

💡

Sugar is hygroscopic - it absorbs moisture from the air. Store in an airtight container to prevent clumping.

💡

150g of granulated sugar is about 3/4 cup using Spoon & Level. For consistency, stick to one measuring method across the whole recipe.

Why Cup-to-Grams Accuracy Matters for Granulated Sugar

Small cup changes create big weight differences. For granulated sugar, 3/4 cup is about 150g, but just 1/4 cup more jumps to 200g.

This is why cup-based recipes can drift: packed, loose, or sifted volume can shift your actual grams. Using grams keeps hydration and texture consistent across batches.

If your recipe starts in cups, convert once to grams and bake by weight. That avoids hidden volume error and makes your result repeatable every time.
