How Much Is 64 Tablespoons of Granulated Sugar in Grams?
64 tablespoons of granulated sugar weighs 800.00 g. This is based on granulated sugar having a density of 200g per cup. Because tablespoons measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 64 tablespoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 64 tablespoons of granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar = 12.5g
- 64 × 12.5 = 800g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Sugar is one of the easier dry ingredients to measure by volume because the crystals pack relatively consistently compared to flour or cocoa powder.
Granulated Sugar at Different Amounts

Understanding the Units
What is a Tablespoon?
Tablespoon sizes differ by country. A US tablespoon is 14.787 ml, close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most countries. An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml, about 35% larger than US. An imperial tablespoon is 17.758 ml. If your recipe comes from Australia, the larger tablespoon size can make a real difference.
What is a Gram?
Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.
