How many cups is 80 grams of unsifted powdered sugar?
Answer
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 2/3 cup.
80 grams of unsifted powdered sugar equals 0.67 US cups; the way back, from cups to grams, is the Cups to Grams converter.
Sifted powdered sugar weighs 100 grams per cup, so the same 80 grams of it is 0.8 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 0.63 cups of that size.
How 80 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 80 by 120.
80 g ÷ 120 g
≈0.67 cups
(zero point six seven 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.

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 unsifted powdered sugar is 120 grams there and here.
