Converting 480 Grams to Cups

When converting 480 grams to cups, the result varies significantly based on the ingredient's density. Here's how the most common ingredients compare:

All-Purpose Flour

3⅞ cups

3 cups + 13 tablespoons + 1¼ teaspoons

Almond Flour

5 cups

Granulated Sugar

2⅜ cups

2 cups + 6 tablespoons + 1¼ teaspoons

Brown Sugar (Packed)

2⅛ cups

2 cups + 2 tablespoons + 2¾ teaspoons

Powdered Sugar

4 cups

Honey

1⅜ cups

1 cup + 6 tablespoons + 1¾ teaspoons

Why the Difference?

The reason 480g of flour isn't the same volume as 480g 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.
