How Much Is 1.35 Teaspoons of Powdered Sugar in Grams?
1.35 teaspoons of powdered sugar weighs 3.38 g. This is based on powdered sugar having a density of 120g per cup. Because teaspoons measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 1.35 teaspoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1.35 teaspoons of powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon of powdered sugar = 2.5g
- 1.35 × 2.5 = 3.38g
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 a Teaspoon?
A teaspoon (tsp) is a US customary unit of volume equal to 4.929 milliliters or 1/3 of a tablespoon. It is the standard measure for spices, leaveners, extracts, and other small-quantity ingredients.
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.
