17.64 ounces of coconut sugar equals 2.78 cups. That's 500.09g, and Coconut sugar has a density of 180g per cup. Because ounces measure weight and cups measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 17.64 ounces of coconut sugar
- Convert ounces to grams: 17.64 × 28.35 = 500.09g
- 1 cup of coconut sugar = 180g
- 500.09g ÷ 180g/cup = 2.78 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Coconut 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).
