What is the weight of sugar in grams?

In summary, the weight of sugar used in Pampered Chef recipes varies depending on the type of sugar being used. Both white and brown sugar can be used in recipes, with brown sugar adding a richer flavor and moisture to baked goods. Honey and maple syrup can also be used as substitutes for sugar, but it is important to consider their different properties and experiment with small amounts before making a full substitution. The most accurate way to measure sugar for Pampered Chef recipes is by using a kitchen scale, but if you do not have one, spooning the sugar into measuring cups and leveling it off with a knife can also work. To store sugar for Pampered Chef recipes, it is best to use air-tight containers in a cool, dry place

Totally weird request! I sold my PC scale because I never used it and now I need to know how much sugar weighs in grams :) Googling it gives me everywhere from 190 to 240 grams per cup. Wondering if someone who has a scale at home could measure for me. I'm doing a project for my sister for a nutrition class on Saturday about the amount of sugar in some of the drinks we drink daily. Thanks!!
 
i got....212 grams per cup of granulated sugar :)
hope that helps....

Thanks a lot!
 
The reason there is a vast difference is because like flour, sugar absorbs or gives off moisture. So on dry days it will less than if it is damp.
 
very true john....i forgot to mention that to her :)
i used to own a bakery and even tho you follow your recipes...you always have to allow for humidity or lack there of....lol
