Cups to grams, for your ingredient
A cup of flour and a cup of honey weigh very differently. Pick the ingredient, enter the amount, and read it in any unit.
Weights are typical averages (US cup, 240 ml). Packing and brand change them by a few percent, so for baking a kitchen scale is more exact.
How this converter works
Each ingredient has a typical weight for one US cup (240 ml). The tool converts your amount to cups, then multiplies by that weight to get grams, ounces, tablespoons and teaspoons. Because packing, humidity and brand change real weights by a few percent, treat the result as a good estimate, and weigh on a scale for baking.

Why does a cup of flour weigh less than a cup of sugar?
Flour is lighter and fluffier, so a cup holds less mass. Weight depends on the ingredient's density.
Which cup size do you use?
A US cup of 240 ml. Some countries use 250 ml cups, which gives about 4% more.
Is weighing better than using cups?
Yes. A scale removes the packing differences that make cup measures vary by 10 to 20%.
