Converting 100 Grams to Cups

When converting 100grams to cups, the result varies significantly based on the ingredient's density. Here's how the most common ingredients compare:

All-Purpose Flour

¾ cup

13 tablespoons

Almond Flour

1 cup

1 cup + 2 teaspoons

Granulated Sugar

½ cup

8 tablespoons

Brown Sugar (Packed)

½ cup

7 tablespoons

Powdered Sugar

⅞ cup

13 tablespoons

Honey

⅓ cup

5 tablespoons

Why the Difference?

The reason 100g of flour isn't the same volume as 100g of sugar comes down to density. Flour is light and fluffy, with air trapped between particles, so a cup of flour weighs less. Sugar crystals pack together more densely, making a cup of sugar heavier.
