Powdered & Icing Sugar Cups to Grams

Powdered sugar (confectioners sugar, icing sugar) is much lighter than granulated sugar due to its ultra-fine grind. 1 cup weighs 120 grams.

Unlike cooking a savory soup where a pinch of salt or splash of broth is forgiving, baking is a chemical reaction. Flour provides starch and gluten frameworks, fats tenderize crumb structures, and sugars control caramelization and moisture retention. Weighing on a kitchen scale ensures consistent, bakery-quality results every single time.
