How Much Is 0.27 Teaspoons of Powdered Sugar in Ounces?
0.27 teaspoons of powdered sugar equals 0.02 oz. Powdered sugar has a density of 120g per cup (2.5g per teaspoon), which means it's relatively light compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 0.27 teaspoons of honey would be 0.07 oz.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.27 teaspoons of powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon of powdered sugar = 2.5g
- 0.27 × 2.5 = 0.68g
- Convert grams to ounces: 0.68 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.02 oz
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.
