Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 120g/cup × 16 = tablespoons
  1. Start with 6.01 ounces of powdered sugar
  2. Convert ounces to grams: 6.01 × 28.35 = 170.38g
  3. 1 cup of powdered sugar = 120g
  4. 170.38g ÷ 120g/cup = 1.42 cups × 16 = 22.72 tablespoons

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.

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 Tablespoon?

One tablespoon holds about 15 milliliters. There are 16 tablespoons in a cup and 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon. In baking, tablespoon measurements are used for butter, oil, honey, and other ingredients where a full cup would be too much.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 22.72 tbsp, based on powdered sugar having a density of 120g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
First convert ounces to grams (1 ounce = 28.3495g), then divide by 120 (grams per cup), then multiply by 16 to get tablespoons. For 6.01 ounces: 6.01 × 28.3495 = 170.38g, then 170.38 ÷ 120 = 1.42 cups × 16 = 22.72 tbsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh powdered sugar on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Granulated and powdered sugars should be spooned into the measuring spoon and leveled off. Do not pack them unless the recipe specifically says to.
Reverse the conversion: 22.72 tbsp ÷ 16 = 1.41984 cups, then 1.41984 × 120g/cup = 170.38g, then 170.38g ÷ 28.3495 = 6.01 ounces. Or use the Tablespoons to Ounces converter.
