One US cup (236.6 ml) of unsifted powdered sugar weighs 120 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169656 “Sugars, powdered”, portion “1 cup unsifted” = 120 grams. In kitchen measures that is exactly 7/8 cup.

This is the US customary cup of 236.6 ml. A metric cup of 250 ml, used in Australia, New Zealand and Canada, is 5.7 % larger, so the same weight fills 0.83 cups of that size.

How 105 grams of unsifted powdered sugar was converted to cups

A cup is a volume, so its weight depends on the ingredient. One US cup of unsifted powdered sugar weighs 120 grams (one hundred twenty), so divide 105 by 120.

105 g ÷ 120 g

≈

0.88 cups

(zero point eight eight cups)

The weight of the cup comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169656 “Sugars, powdered”, portion “1 cup unsifted” = 120 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.
