Understanding the Units

What is a Pound?

A pound (lb) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 453.592 grams or 16 ounces. It is used for larger quantities of ingredients like flour, sugar, and meat.

What is a Cup?

There are three cup standards used worldwide. The US cup (236.588 ml) is used in American recipes. The metric cup (250 ml) is standard in Australia, New Zealand, and some parts of Asia. The imperial cup (284.131 ml) appears in older British and Canadian recipes. A metric cup holds about 5.7% more than a US cup, while an imperial cup holds about 20% more. Using the wrong standard can noticeably affect a recipe.

Close, but not exactly. The pounds to cups conversion for coconut sugar may vary slightly between brands depending on moisture content and how the ingredient is measured.

Can I convert pounds to cups without specifying the ingredient? expand_more

The same weight of different ingredients fills different volumes because each ingredient has a different density. A pound of coconut sugar fills a different number of cups than a pound of a lighter or heavier ingredient. That is why this converter needs to know which ingredient you are measuring.
