Cup & Gram

200 Grams of Sugar to Cups

200 grams of granulated sugar equals 1 cup, based on 200 g per cup (level cup). In the kitchen, measure 1 cup. For best results, weigh granulated sugar with a scale — cup measurements vary with how the cup is filled.

This is a typical single-recipe amount, where how you fill the cup matters most: a level, consistent fill keeps batches repeatable.

How to measure 200 g of granulated sugar without a scale

Granulated sugar flows evenly, so scoop-and-level is fine — it settles to nearly the same weight however you fill the cup. That makes sugar the most forgiving ingredient to measure by volume; a level cup is 200 g within a gram or two.
