Convert Sultanas measurements
Sultanas Measurement Converter
Use the tool below to convert sultanas from the measurements in your recipe to the measurements that you need.
Sultanas go into fruit cakes, scones, hot cross buns, and breakfast granola, and recipes flip between cups and grams without notice. One metric cup of sultanas weighs about 165 g (5.82 oz), so a 250 g bag is roughly 1.5 cups. Convert either way when scaling a recipe up or down.
Dried fruit settles in the cup, so a packed cup can weigh 10 to 15 g more than a loose one. Use weight when the fruit ratio drives texture, like a Christmas cake or panettone.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are sultanas and golden raisins the same thing?
- Yes. Golden raisins is another name for sultanas, so they are the same ingredient and measure identically. A cup of sultanas weighs 165 grams under either name, and every conversion on this page holds whichever name your recipe uses. Recipes swap the two freely, so you can follow either without changing quantities or weighing any differently.
- What is 0.25 cups of sultanas in tablespoons?
- 0.25 cups of sultanas is 4.17 tablespoons. This is the same for any ingredient, since cups and tablespoons are both volume units and do not depend on what you are measuring. One cup is about 16.67 tablespoons, so 0.5 cups is 8.33 tablespoons. Use the volume converter to switch between cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, and millilitres for any amount. Open the volume converter
- How much does a cup of sultanas weigh?
- 1 cup of sultanas in grams is 165 grams. The ratio is fixed, so 2 cups is 330 grams and half a cup is 82.5 grams. Weighing sultanas by the cup is the most common way to measure it for baking. The chart above this FAQ lists the cup amounts recipes call for, and the converter at the top handles anything between them.
- How do you measure sultanas in cups?
- 100 grams of sultanas is 0.61 cups. The conversion scales in a straight line, so 200 grams is 1.21 cups and 50 grams is 0.3 cups. Grams to cups helps when a recipe gives a weight but you measure with cups. The chart above this FAQ covers the other weights cooks measure out.
- How do you measure sultanas in tablespoons?
- 50 grams of sultanas is 5.05 tablespoons. The ratio is fixed, so 100 grams is 10.1 tablespoons and 25 grams is 2.53 tablespoons. Tablespoons are handy for smaller amounts when you would rather not get out the scales. The chart above this FAQ turns the other common weights into tablespoons too.
Related to Sultanas
Dates
Chopped dates swap 1:1 by volume for sultanas with a deeper, caramel sweetness and a chewier bite. They weigh more per cup (178 g vs 165 g), so weigh when the crumb depends on the fruit ratio. See our Dates converter.
Raisins
Raisins are the darker cousin of sultanas, made from sun-dried grapes rather than the lighter, sulfur-treated sultana grape. Both weigh 165 g per cup, so swap 1:1 by volume or weight and expect a deeper, more robust flavour from raisins. See our Raisins converter.
Craisins
Craisins are sweetened dried cranberries, lighter (120 g vs 165 g per cup) and tart-sweet rather than honey-sweet. Weigh when swapping and expect a punchier hit in granola, scones, and oatmeal cookies. See our Craisins converter.
Dried Apricot Halves
Dried apricot halves are bigger, leathery pieces (135 g per cup) with a mellow fruit flavour. Use the halves converter when a recipe calls for whole halves rather than bite-sized sultanas. See our Dried Apricot Halves converter.
Chopped Dried Apricots
Chopped dried apricots are diced into bite-sized pieces, close in weight to sultanas (160 g vs 165 g per cup) but milder and tangier in flavour. Swap 1:1 by volume in breakfast bars and granola. See our Chopped Dried Apricots converter.
