How Much Is 150 Grams of Raw Sugar in Cups?
Converting 150 grams of raw sugar to cups gives 0.75 cups. Divide by the density of raw sugar (200g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 150 grams of raw sugar
- 1 cup of raw sugar = 200g
- 150g ÷ 200g/cup = 0.75 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Raw sugar should be spooned into the measuring cup and leveled off. Do not pack it unless the recipe specifically says to (packing is only standard for brown sugar).

Understanding the Units
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
What is a Cup?
A cup is a US customary unit of volume equal to 236.588 milliliters or 8 fluid ounces. It is the most common volume measurement in American recipes. One cup can be divided into 16 tablespoons or 48 teaspoons.
