How many cups is 454 grams of sifted powdered sugar?
Answer
One US cup (236.6 ml) of sifted powdered sugar weighs 100 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169656 “Sugars, powdered”, portion “1 cup sifted” = 100 grams. In kitchen measures that is just over 4 1/2 cups.
454 grams of sifted powdered sugar equals 4.54 US cups; the way back, from cups to grams, is the Cups to Grams converter.
Unsifted powdered sugar weighs 120 grams per cup, so the same 454 grams of it is 3.78 cups.
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 4.3 cups of that size.
How 454 grams of sifted powdered sugar was converted to cups
A cup is a volume, so its weight depends on the ingredient. One US cup of sifted powdered sugar weighs 100 grams (one hundred), so divide 454 by 100.
454 g ÷ 100 g
=4.54 cups
(four point five four cups)
The weight of the cup comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169656 “Sugars, powdered”, portion “1 cup sifted” = 100 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.

This page starts from grams and answers in cups. The opposite question — how many grams a recipe’s cups weigh, fractions like 1/2 and 2 1/2 included — is what the cups to grams converter is for. Both read the same USDA weights, so their numbers agree: one US cup of sifted powdered sugar is 100 grams there and here.
