Cup & Gram

175 Grams to Cups

175 grams is 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour, ⅞ cup of granulated sugar, or ¾ cup of butter — grams measure weight, cups measure volume, so the answer always depends on the ingredient's density. Find yours in the table below; every density is verified against King Arthur and USDA data.

175 g is also 6.2 oz by weight. For water and thin liquids, 175 g is simply 175 ml.

all-purpose flour 1 ½ cups 1.46 1 cup + 7 tbsp
granulated sugar ⅞ cup 0.88 14 tbsp
powdered sugar 1 ½ cups 1.46 1 cup + 7 tbsp
brown sugar (packed) ⅞ cup 0.82 13 tbsp

Why the ingredient changes the answer

A US cup is a fixed volume (about 237 ml), but a cup of flour weighs 120 g while a cup of honey weighs 340 g — density is the whole game. That's also why there's no single "grams to cups" conversion factor, and why our converter asks for the ingredient first.

250 g All-purpose flour = 2 ⅛ cups

Exactly 2.08 cups — or measure 2 cups + 1 tbsp.
