Erythritol — Grams & Cups Converter
1 cup of erythritol weighs about 200 g. So 100 g ≈ 1/2 cup, 200 g ≈ 1 cup, and 300 g ≈ 1 1/2 cups. Convert any amount between grams, cups, ounces, tablespoons and millilitres with the calculator below.
💡 Tip: Measures cup-for-cup like sugar but weighs a little less; grind to powder to avoid a gritty, cooling finish in frostings

Using erythritol cup-for-cup in low-sugar baking
Erythritol is a sugar alcohol that measures cup-for-cup like granulated sugar but weighs a little less — about 200 g per cup (7.1 oz) against roughly 200 g for sugar at the same volume. It's only around 70% as sweet as sugar, so many recipes call for a touch more to match. It doesn't dissolve or brown like sugar and can leave a gritty, cooling mouthfeel, so blitz it to a powder for frostings, custards and no-bake fillings. Branded blends such as those with monk fruit are often formulated to be 1:1 as sweet as sugar — check the label.

- How many grams is ½ cup of erythritol?
- Half a US cup of erythritol is about 100 grams.
- How much does 1 cup of erythritol weigh?
- 1 cup of erythritol weighs about 200 grams, or roughly 7.05 ounces.
- How many grams in a tablespoon of erythritol?
- About 12.5 grams per tablespoon (and roughly 4.17 g per teaspoon).
- Why do my numbers differ slightly?
- Density changes with how the erythritol is packed, sifted or measured. For precise baking, weigh with a scale instead of using cups.
- How many grams is 2 cups of erythritol?
- About 400 g, since one cup is roughly 200 g.
- How many cups is 150g of erythritol?
- About ¾ cup.
- Is erythritol as sweet as sugar?
- No — it's roughly 70% as sweet, so you may need a little more to match the sweetness of sugar.
- Can I substitute erythritol 1:1 for sugar in baking?
- By volume you can start 1:1, but because it's less sweet and doesn't brown or dissolve like sugar, results differ; blends with monk fruit are formulated for closer 1:1 sweetness.
- Why is my erythritol frosting gritty?
- Granular erythritol doesn't fully dissolve and can recrystallise; grind it to a powder first for smooth frostings and creams.
