About
Coconut sugar is a granulated palm sweetener that weighs about 6.2 ounces (177 grams) per standard cup.
Coconut sugar is made from the sap of coconut palm flower bud stems. It has a bulk density of about 6.2 ounces per cup (0.75 grams per milliliter), meaning its irregular granules do not pack as tightly as refined white sugar. Because it takes up more space per ounce than table sugar, a standard one-pound (454-gram) bag fills about 2.6 US cups (605 milliliters) of volume. It pours easily into measuring cups and sits loosely, similar to unpacked brown sugar.
