  2. 1 cup of powdered sugar = 120g
  3. 36.67g ÷ 120g/cup = 0.31 cups

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

Measuring Tip

Powdered sugar dissolves faster than granulated, making it ideal for frostings and glazes. Weight is the most reliable way to measure it consistently.
