220 Grams to Cups

Direct Kitchen Answer

220 grams is about 1¾ cups of all-purpose flour, 1⅛ cups of granulated sugar, or 1 cup of butter.

For practical kitchen measuring, 220 grams of granulated sugar is about 1⅛ cups (18 tablespoons).

Why volume varies: Because grams measure weight while cups measure volume, the same 220 grams can take up different amounts of space depending on the ingredient.

Published baking standards vary: King Arthur Baking specifies 120g/cup for their recipes, while direct scooping ("dip and sweep") compacts flour up to 140g–150g per cup.

How We Calculate 220 Grams to Cups

At GramsToCups.site, every conversion is derived from authoritative USDA FoodData Central bulk densities rather than generic approximations. Because cup capacities differ internationally, our converter provides instant support across five major standards: US Customary (236.6 mL), US Legal (240 mL), Metric (250 mL), UK Imperial (284.1 mL), and Japanese (200 mL).

Frequently Asked Questions

How many cups is 220 grams of flour?

220 grams of all-purpose flour equals approximately 1 3/4 cups (1.76 cups) when fluffed, spooned into the cup, and leveled.

How many cups is 220 grams of sugar?

220 grams of granulated white sugar equals approximately 1 1/8 cups (1.10 cups), or 17.6 tablespoons.

How many cups is 220 grams of butter?

220 grams of butter equals approximately 1 cups (0.97 cups), which is 1.94 standard US butter sticks or 15.5 tablespoons.

How do I measure 220 grams without a kitchen scale?

220g is exactly 1 cup of packed brown sugar, or 1¾ cups of flour.

Why does 220 grams produce different cup volumes for different ingredients?

Cups measure volume (3D physical space) while grams measure mass (weight). Because granulated sugar (200g/cup) is significantly denser than all-purpose flour (125g/cup), 220 grams of sugar occupies far less cup volume than 220 grams of flour.
