Turbinado Sugar: Grams to Cups

Convert grams of turbinado sugar to cups. 1 US cup = 200g. Turbinado is a raw cane sugar with large golden crystals and a mild molasses flavour. It measures similarly to granulated white sugar.

Turbinado sugar crystals are larger than granulated white sugar, so they pack slightly less efficiently. However, the difference is small — 200g per cup vs 200g for granulated white sugar. The main uses are as a crunchy topping, in coffee, and in recipes where a light molasses note is desired.

Turbinado Sugar — Frequently Asked Questions

200 grams of turbinado sugar is exactly 1 cup. Turbinado measures the same as granulated white sugar by weight.
Both are raw cane sugars with large crystals and light molasses flavour. Turbinado is slightly more refined — it has been partially processed to remove more molasses. Demerara has slightly stickier crystals and a slightly stronger molasses note. Both measure at 200g per cup.
Yes, 1:1 by weight. The flavour will have a mild molasses note and the texture of baked goods may be slightly different due to the larger crystal size. It will not dissolve as quickly in cold liquids.
Turbinado is minimally less processed than white sugar and retains trace minerals from molasses. However, the nutritional difference is negligible — both are primarily sucrose.
The large crystal size of turbinado sugar stays crunchy on baked good surfaces even after baking, creating a sparkly, crunchy topping effect. Fine white sugar dissolves and disappears into the surface.
