How to measure coconut sugar accurately
For the most reliable baking results, weigh coconut sugar on a kitchen scale rather than scooping by volume. One US cup of coconut sugar weighs about 154 grams (5.43 oz), but the exact figure changes with how tightly it's packed and the brand. Scooping straight from the bag compacts coconut sugar and can leave you 15 to 20% over, so spoon it into the cup and level it off for the closest match to the figures above. Use the tables for quick reference, or the converter for any custom amount in cups, grams, ounces or tablespoons.
Tip: Coconut sugar can leave a faint grittiness in no-bake or uncooked recipes; for those, dissolve it in the warm liquid first.
