Formula and Step-by-Step

cups × 200g/cup ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 0.33 cups of granulated sugar
  2. 1 cup of granulated sugar = 200g
  3. 0.33 × 200 = 66g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 66 ÷ 28.3495 = 2.33 oz

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Sugar is one of the easier dry ingredients to measure by volume because the crystals pack relatively consistently compared to flour or cocoa powder.

Understanding the Units

What is a Cup?

The US cup (236.588 ml) is slightly smaller than the metric cup used in Australia and some other countries (250 ml). When following recipes from different countries, check which cup standard is being used.

What is an Ounce?

Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 2.33 oz, based on granulated sugar having a density of 200g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 200 (grams per cup for granulated sugar), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 0.33 cups: 0.33 × 200 = 66g, then 66 ÷ 28.3495 = 2.33 oz.
For the most accurate results, weigh granulated sugar on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring cup and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Granulated and powdered sugars should be spooned into the measuring cup and leveled off. Do not pack them unless the recipe specifically says to.
Reverse the conversion: 2.33 oz × 28.3495 = 66g, then 66g ÷ 200 = 0.33 cups. Or use the Ounces to Cups converter.
