  • A tablespoon here is the 15 ml metric standard, about 16.67 to a metric cup, the same size as a UK tablespoon. A US tablespoon is smaller at 14.79 ml, so US cooks measuring with US spoons need slightly more. An Australian tablespoon is larger at 20 ml, so it holds about a third more.

  • A little over or under won't ruin the bake. An extra spoon mainly makes it sweeter.

Palm sugar is an unrefined sweetener made from the sap of palm trees, with a rich caramel flavour and subtle earthy notes. One metric cup (250 ml) of palm sugar weighs around 200 grams or 7.05 ounces. When a recipe calls for palm sugar in cups but you prefer to measure by weight, this converter handles the calculation.

Palm sugar is sold as blocks, pastes, and fine granules, and each form packs into a cup differently. Weighing in grams is more reliable than scooping, especially with blocks that need grating first.

  • coconut sugar
  • jaggery
  • gula melaka

Brown sugar has a similar caramel depth and is the most common everyday swap for palm sugar. Brown sugar is moister and heavier by cup (220 g vs 200 g), so weigh when substituting and expect a slightly softer, sweeter result. See our Brown Sugar converter.

Raw sugar is a dry, coarse cane sugar with a faint caramel note and similar weight per cup (200 g). It lacks palm sugar's earthy depth but works as a 1:1 swap by weight in recipes where the flavour difference is minor. See our Raw Sugar converter.

Molasses is the dark syrup behind the earthy, bittersweet notes found in unrefined sugars like palm sugar. A small amount of molasses stirred into white sugar can approximate the flavour when palm sugar is unavailable. See our Molasses converter.
