Two cups of sugar are in one pound.

Two cups is close enough for cooking. The density (mass per unit volume) will vary depending on the grain size and shape of the sugar granules. The greater the air voids between the grains, the lower the density. Powdered sugar and raw sugar have different grain structures which give different densities. Look on the package. The 4 pound package (not 5 pounds like it once was), I am looking at says it contains approximately 9 cups. This does not mean there is more sugar because there are more cups. It means there is less sugar (by weight) in a cup.

I think it's about 113 teaspoons per pound of sugar. A pound of anything has 454 grams (look it up). There are 4.0 calories per gram of pure carbohydrate (I'm not positive it's exactly 4.0 but that's what Wikipedia said). Now, as I recall the sugar industry used to have a commercial along the lines of "16 calories per teaspoon". That'd be 4 grams per teaspoon. 4 goes into 454 how many times? The answer is 113.5. If you really count, with teaspoons and a bag of sugar on the counter, etc., I imagine it would be less because it's hard to take less than one teaspoon, and easy to take a little more.

---- The Nutrition Facts on a bag of sugar says 1 teaspoon is 4 grams. However, when you deal with small amounts like teaspoons or just a handful of grams, there is usually rounding. According to www.nutritiondata.com, 1 cup of sugar is 200 grams. At 454 grams per pound, 1 pound equals 2.27 cups. 1 cup = 48 teaspoons, thus 48 x 2.27 = 108.96 or about 109 teaspoons per pound of sugar.

There are 64 teaspoons in a pound of honey. Honey is made from nectar collected by bees and deposited into a honeycomb. Each bee must visit about 1,500 flowers to collect enough nectar to be of any use.

Sugar

About 37 tablespoons.

4lb bag of sugar is 1.8kg that's 1800g. 12g/tbsp

1800g/12g = 150tbsp per 4lb bag

150/4 = 37/5tbsp per lb
