Convert cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, grams, ounces, pounds and milliliters for cooking and baking. Pick an ingredient — flour, sugar or butter — for a weight conversion that actually matches what is in your bowl.
Gram weights per cup come from a published reference, not a guess.
Cups measure volume, but grams measure weight — so a gram figure for flour, sugar or butter depends on that ingredient's density. The per-cup weights used here (flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, powdered sugar and butter) come from the King Arthur Baking ingredient weight chart, a widely cited baking reference. Water and other pourable liquids use the physics-based 1 gram per milliliter instead, since that conversion needs no reference table.
