Measuring 350g of Light Brown Sugar in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of light brown sugar weighs 200g when measured firmly packed, 350 Grams (350g) translates to 1.75 US cups (1 ¾ cups). By contrast, using the loosely spooned (unpacked) measure (145g/cup — a 55g per-cup shift), 350g occupies 2 ⅓ cups + 1 tbsp + ¾ tsp (2.41 cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 1 ¾ cups (28 tablespoons total) using firmly packed technique. Press sugar firmly into the dry measuring cup with your fingers or a spoon until it holds the shape of the cup when inverted.
