Converting 60 Grams to Cups

When converting 60 grams to cups, the result varies significantly based on the ingredient's density. Here's how the most common ingredients compare:

All-Purpose Flour

½ cup

7 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons

Almond Flour

⅝ cup

10 tablespoons

Granulated Sugar

⅓ cup

4 tablespoons + 2½ teaspoons

Brown Sugar (Packed)

¼ cup

4 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon

Powdered Sugar

½ cup

8 tablespoons

Honey

⅛ cup

2 tablespoons + 2½ teaspoons

Why the Difference?

The reason 60g of flour isn't the same volume as 60g 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.
