How many grams is 2/3 cup of packed brown sugar?
Answer
One US cup (236.6 ml) of packed brown sugar weighs 220 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 168833 “Sugars, brown”, portion “1 cup packed” = 220 grams.
2/3 cup of packed brown sugar equals 146.7 grams; the way back, from grams to cups, is the Grams to Cups converter.
Unpacked brown sugar weighs 145 grams per cup, so 2/3 cup of it is 96.7 grams.
This is the US customary cup of 236.6 ml. A recipe written for the metric cup of 250 ml (Australia, New Zealand, Canada) means 5.7 % more: 155 grams.
How 2/3 cup of packed brown sugar was converted to grams
One US cup of packed brown sugar weighs 220 grams (two hundred twenty), so multiply 2/3 by 220.
2/3 × 220 g
≈146.7 grams
(one hundred forty-six point seven grams)
The weight of the cup comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 168833 “Sugars, brown”, portion “1 cup packed” = 220 grams. Scooped ingredients vary with how they are filled — spooned in lightly, a cup weighs less; packed down, more — so for baking a kitchen scale is the exact tool and this figure the standard reference.
