Measuring 200g of brown sugar without a scale

No scale? 200 g of brown sugar is about ⅞ cup (0.91 cups), or roughly 15 tablespoons using standard US measuring cups and spoons. Spoon it in and level off the top instead of scooping, which packs in extra.

Two hundred grams of brown sugar sits at about seven-eighths of a cup, roughly 91 percent of a full cup packed. It is enough for a 9-inch cake, a sticky toffee pudding, or a generous batch of salted caramel sauce. The trap here is rounding up to a whole cup, which adds another 20 grams and can make bakes greasy or overly soft. If you have no scale, pack a cup and then scoop out about a level tablespoon.
