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.
Waxier potatoes contain more sugars than other types of potatoes. For example, the sugar content in 100 grams of red potatoes is 1.29 grams and that of white potatoes is 1.15 grams, while russet potatoes only contain 0.62 grams of sugar per 100-gram serving. How potatoes are stored can also alter their sugar content.
