How to convert grams of caster sugar to cups

One level US cup of caster sugar weighs about 220 g. Divide the grams by that: 1000 ÷ 220 = 4.55 cups.

Sugar is fairly consistent by volume, but sticky syrups cling to the cup – grease it first so you get the full amount out.

Frequently asked questions

How many cups is 1000 grams of caster sugar?

Should I weigh caster sugar or measure it by volume?

Sugar is fairly consistent by volume, but sticky syrups cling to the cup – grease it first so you get the full amount out. Weighing is always more accurate, which is why grams are the safest choice for baking.
