Converting 390 Grams to Cups

When converting 390 grams to cups, the result varies significantly based on the ingredient's density. Here's how the most common ingredients compare:

All-Purpose Flour

3⅛ cups

3 cups + 1 tablespoon + 2¾ teaspoons

Almond Flour

4⅛ cups

4 cups + 1 tablespoon

Granulated Sugar

2 cups

1 cup + 15 tablespoons + ½ teaspoon

Brown Sugar (Packed)

1¾ cups

1 cup + 12 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon

Powdered Sugar

3 cups + 4 tablespoons

Honey

1⅛ cups

1 cup + 2 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon

Why the Difference?

The reason 390g of flour isn't the same volume as 390g 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.
