What does a “packed” cup of brown sugar mean?

213 g is a packed cup — brown sugar pressed down into the cup rather than spooned in loose. That is the convention King Arthur's figure is measured under, and it is why the chart states it. A loosely filled cup weighs less, by an amount that depends on how hard you pressed, which is precisely why the packed figure is the one that gets published and the loose one does not.

Frequently asked questions

How many ml is 1 cup of Brown sugar?

1 cup of Brown sugar is 236.6 ml. Cups, millilitres, tablespoons and teaspoons all measure volume, so this figure is the same whatever is in the cup — a US cup is 236.588 ml, 16 tablespoons and 48 teaspoons by definition. What the ingredient changes is the weight: a cup of Brown sugar is 213 g.

How many cups is 250 ml of Brown sugar?

250 ml of Brown sugar is 1.06 cups. It is the same conversion read backwards, so this page and its reverse always agree.

Is one millilitre of Brown sugar the same as one gram?

No — that holds for water alone. Brown sugar works out at 0.9 g/ml, so 100 ml of it weighs 90.03 g rather than 100 g. A converter that assumes a millilitre is a gram is really only telling you about water.

Where does dishscale's figure for Brown sugar come from?

One US cup of Brown sugar is 213 g. The dataset records that as: “King Arthur Baking”. That is the King Arthur Baking ingredient weight chart. Every ingredient on the site carries the reference its weight came from, so any number here can be checked — and corrected if the source disagrees.
