Carbohydrates in Potatoes. A 100 g serving of baked sweet potato, or approximately 1/2 cup, contains 21 g of carbohydrates. Of those, 3 g are fiber and 6 g are sugar â the rest of the carbohydrates come from starches. A 100 g serving of baked white potato also contains 21 g of carbohydrates, with 2 g of fiber and 1 g of sugar. Although not all starches are broken down at the same rate, the types found in potatoes break down and hit the bloodstream quickly.
Russet, red and white potatoes share similar sugar and starch profiles. One medium potato has 2 grams of sugar and 23 to 30 grams of starch. Sweet potatoes have more sugar -- 7 grams -- but about the same amount of starch. When they're digested, both carbohydrates are broken down into the simple sugar glucose.
