How to Convert Grams of Sugar to Tablespoons

To convert a gram measurement to a tablespoon measurement, multiply the sugar by the conversion ratio.

Since one gram of sugar is equal to 0.08 tablespoons, you can use this simple formula to convert:

tablespoons = grams × 0.08

The sugar in tablespoons is equal to the grams multiplied by 0.08.

For example, here's how to convert 5 grams to tablespoons using the formula above.

5 g = (5 × 0.08) = 0.4 tbsp

While experts usually suggest measuring dry ingredients by weight since it's more accurate,[1] some recipes call for ingredients by volume and many of us don't have a scale when we need one. Because the density of different types of sugar vary, it may not be obvious how to convert between a weight and volume measurements.

This table shows the approximate volume measurement for various weights of sugar, by type to help with the conversion.

Should I Measure Sugar by Weight or Volume?

Many experts are adamant that dry ingredients like sugar should be measured by weight instead of volume, especially when used for baking.

The reason is that the density of different sugars vary slightly, so volume measurements will likely yield an incorrect amount of ingredient. Additionally, when using a cup or tablespoon, the amount that the sugar is compressed and above or under the measurement line will alter the actual amount.

This is why most experts suggest using a food scale to measure sugar when cooking, rather than a cup, tablespoon, or other volume measuring devices.
