The gram, or gramme, is an SI unit of weight in the metric system. Grams can be abbreviated as g ; for example, 1 gram can be written as 1 g. The cup is a unit of volume equal to 16 tablespoons or 8 fluid ounces. The cup should not be confused with the metric cup or the teacup, which are different units of volume. As measurements go it's a bit vague! Similarly, the amount you can fit into a heaped cup can vary significantly depending on the shape of the cup. I therefore don't use either of these descriptions in my recipes it's a flat cup, tablespoon or teaspoon for me.
In addition to the main calculator, I thought it would be helpful to provide conversion tables for a selection of the most popular ingredients. I've seen many recipes from the US calling for a stick of butter, but just how much butter do you actually get in a stick?
Hello, I just discovered this amazing site! Thank you for all this very useful information. Please, would it be possible to measure flaxseed flour and hempseed flour? Hi I need measurements for yeast. If recipe said 5 grams of yeast would that be 1tablespoon? Need help. Thank you! So helpful! Would love to have baking powder and baking soda added to the conversion list.
Plus, it takes extra time to sift the flour, and leaves a mess on the kitchen counter. You can always add a bit more or less water by judging the texture of the dough. However, an accurate measurement will prevent you from cooking failure. The perfect solution to this problem is getting an electric scale.
I highly recommend you buy one, because it will save you a lot of trouble in the future. It is intended to help you speeding up the measuring process. I love hearing from you! Submit your question or review below.

You can also subscribe without commenting. I am reading your article on converting grams of flour to cups. I sometimes bake bread, make biscuits and home made egg noodles.
So I followed your article perfectly. Your statement that for home cooking exact measurements are probably less important than judging texture and feel of the dough is right on. After I followed some recipes and got the idea, I practiced until I knew what the dough should look like and feel like, and that is how I do it now.
I really like your website. Different ingredients have different weights. By volume, 1 cup of sugar is heavier than 1 cup of flour. This has been taken into consideration in the calculations.
I've included the most common ingredients in the dropdown list. If there are any you would like added, just leave me a comment and I'll be more than happy to update the calculator for you. While I have made every effort to get these measures accurate. If you feel that I have made a mistake, please let me know so that I can correct it. Calculations have been based on the number of grams in a standard US Cup ml. Why not bookmark this calculator so you can reference it later, or pin it to your pinterest board so you can find it easily when you need it.
Just click the image below. If you'd like to continue browsing, just click on this link to all my recipes. In my previous life, I was an IT Consultant. Now that I've swapped an office for a kitchen I have a lot more time to spend on things that interest me such as trying out new recipes.
Most of my cooking is based around quick and easy meals, and you'll probably find a little South African influence creeping in due to the many years I spent there. Thank you very much for this calculator. Every other one I found looked like it had been created by someone who never cooked. I really appreciate you taking the time to create an accurate converter that I can trust!
