Measuring 200g of granulated sugar without a scale

No scale? 200 g of granulated sugar is about 1 cup, or roughly 1 cup using standard US measuring cups and spoons. Spoon it in and level off the top instead of scooping, which packs in extra.

200 g of granulated sugar is the reference point: exactly one US cup, the figure every other amount on this page is measured against. It is the textbook quantity for a single-layer butter cake, a full tray of chewy chocolate chip cookies, or a basic batch of Italian meringue. Because it is the round-number baseline, 200 g is the easiest amount to halve or double in your head, and most one-cup conversions you find elsewhere are quietly assuming this same density.
