How Much Is 13.33 Tablespoons of Powdered Sugar in Grams?
13.33 tablespoons of powdered sugar weighs 99.98 g. This is based on powdered sugar having a density of 120g 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 13.33 tablespoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 13.33 tablespoons of powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar = 7.5g
- 13.33 × 7.5 = 99.98g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Powdered sugar settles significantly during storage. Sifted powdered sugar weighs about 100g per cup compared to 120g unsifted - check whether your recipe means sifted or unsifted.
