7½ cups The usual 32-ounce package (2 pounds) of powdered sugar has about 7½ cups of powdered sugar.
How many cups of powdered sugar does one pound contain?
Powdered sugar directly from the box or plastic bag weighs 4 1/2 ounces per cup; therefore, a 1-pound box (or 16 ounces) provides approximately 3 1/2 cups of powdered sugar. If a recipe asks for powdered sugar, 4 ounces of powdered sugar will equal 1 dry measuring cup.
