Density of loose sugar is already between 0.7-1 grams / cm^3. Compressed sugar as in a cube weighs more, depending on the compression / packing factor. But 1cm^3 sugar cubes are rare, chances are you only think they are that big, while they are actually more near the standard cubes 16x16x12mm^3, which again triples the weight.
You kind of prove my point here: people typically fail to guess weights of a few grams.
Edit: corrected density, I had previously used the actual density, not the density of loose sugar, which is less.
Except it isn’t: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar_cube
Huh. The ones I’ve seen where usually 1cm³, which is pretty much exactly 1g.
