About Grams to Cups Conversion

Why Different Ingredients Have Different Conversions

Unlike volume-to-volume or weight-to-weight conversions, converting grams to cups depends on the ingredient's density. A cup of flour weighs much less than a cup of honey because honey is denser. This is why you need to select the specific ingredient for accurate conversion.

Common Ingredient Conversions

Baking Basics:
Flour: 120g per cup
Sugar: 200g per cup
Butter: 227g per cup
Cocoa: 100g per cup
Liquids & Others:
Water: 240g per cup
Milk: 245g per cup
Oil: 220g per cup
Honey: 340g per cup

Tips for Accurate Measurements

  • Use a kitchen scale for the most accurate measurements
  • Spoon flour into measuring cups rather than scooping (scooping packs it down)
  • Level off dry ingredients with a straight edge
  • For butter, 1 stick = 113g = 1/2 cup
  • These conversions are approximate - actual values may vary by brand and method

Why Use Grams?

Professional bakers and many international recipes use grams because weight measurements are more accurate and consistent than volume measurements. A cup of flour can vary by 30g or more depending on how it's measured, but 120g is always 120g.
