How Much Is 80.01 Ounces of Powdered Sugar in Cups?
Converting 80.01 ounces of powdered sugar to cups gives 18.90 cups. First convert to grams (80.01 oz = 2,268.25g), then divide by the density of powdered sugar (120g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 80.01 ounces of powdered sugar
- Convert ounces to grams: 80.01 × 28.35 = 2,268.25g
- 1 cup of powdered sugar = 120g
- 2,268.25g ÷ 120g/cup = 18.90 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Powdered sugar clumps easily. Sift before measuring by volume, or weigh to avoid the sifted-vs-unsifted ambiguity entirely.

Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.
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.
