How to convert tablespoons of caster sugar to grams

A US tablespoon is 1/16 of a cup. One cup of caster sugar weighs about 220 g, so one tablespoon is 14 g and 2 × 14 = 28 g.

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 grams is 2 tablespoons of caster sugar?

2 tablespoons of caster sugar is 28 grams, based on 220 g per level US cup.

Is a tablespoon the same everywhere?

Almost. US and UK tablespoons hold about 15 ml and teaspoons about 5 ml. Australia is the exception: an Australian tablespoon is 20 ml (4 teaspoons), so use ¾ of an Australian tablespoon to match a US one.

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.
