Measuring 150g of powdered sugar without a scale
No scale? 150 g of powdered sugar is about 1¼ cups (1.25 cups), or roughly 1 cup + 4 tablespoons using standard US measuring cups and spoons. Spoon it in and level off the top instead of scooping, which packs in extra.
One hundred fifty grams equals 1.25 US cups, a quantity that shows up constantly in classic buttercreams and cream-cheese frostings paired with one stick of butter. It is roughly enough icing to pipe a dozen generously swirled cupcakes. The quarter-cup over a full cup is easy to handle: measure one level cup, then add a quarter-cup spooned and leveled. For royal icing, this pairs naturally with a single large egg white.
