No. By sifting a powder, you remove most things that might otherwise give a false volume, like clumps. So you're weighing the same volume of stuff: sugar versus flour. Try this: Get a level tablespoon of flour and heft it in your hand. Empty the tablespoon out now. Fill it with sugar (level) and heft it. Sugar is alot heavier.

Sift the all-purpose flour, using a sieve or flour sifter, into a bowl.2 Measure 3/4 cup of flour from the all-purpose flour you just sifted, and pour it in a new bowl. A cup of sifted flour will weigh less than a cup of unsifted flour because sifting creates more volume, so if you scoop sifted flour, you are scooping less of it. Therefore, it is a good idea to sift more all-purpose flour than you might need.
