A metric cup (250 ml, used in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and many Indian recipes) holds about 6% more than a US cup.
Granulated sugars are levelled; brown sugar is packed firmly into the cup. Syrups are easiest to measure in a lightly oiled cup.
Weights are for a level US cup (236.6 ml) and level spoons, from King Arthur Baking's ingredient weight chart. Brands and packing vary by a few per cent; when a recipe gives grams, weigh rather than measure.
1 level US cup of demerara sugar weighs about 220 g (7.8 oz). A 250 ml metric cup weighs about 232 g.
1 level tablespoon of demerara sugar is about 14 g, and 1 teaspoon is about 4.6 g.
100 g of demerara sugar is about 0.45 cups, or 7.3 tablespoons.
A cup measures volume, not weight. Demerara Sugar is slightly lighter than water, so a cup weighs a little less (220 g vs 237 g).
