1 cup + 2 tablespoons
Brown Sugar (Packed)

Why the Difference?
The reason 225g of flour isn't the same volume as 225g 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.
