About this calculator
A cooking converter changes an ingredient amount between volume measures (cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, milliliters, fluid ounces) and weight measures (grams, ounces, pounds). Because a cup of flour and a cup of honey weigh very different amounts, it uses the density of the chosen ingredient to cross between volume and weight.
Frequently asked questions
How many grams are in a cup of flour?
About 125 grams for all-purpose flour, because flour is light (roughly 0.53 g per ml). A cup of granulated sugar is heavier, around 200 grams.
Why do I need to pick an ingredient?
Cups and tablespoons measure volume, while grams and ounces measure weight. Converting between them needs the ingredient density — a cup of honey weighs far more than a cup of flour.
Are these US or metric cups?
This uses the US customary cup of about 236.6 ml. A metric cup is 250 ml and an Australian tablespoon is larger, so results are approximate for those systems.
