Cooking Converter

Convert cups ↔ grams by ingredient with approximate kitchen densities in your browser.

Tool workspace

Densities are approximate cooking estimates. Packing, humidity, and brand vary—not lab-grade or nutrition-label claims.

Conversion runs in your browser between US cups and grams for the selected ingredient. Values are not sent to our servers.

How it works

Choose an ingredient, enter an amount, and select cups (US) or grams. The tool multiplies or divides by a curated grams-per-cup density for that ingredient (for example all-purpose flour 125 g/cup, granulated sugar 200 g/cup, water 236 g/cup).

Results update as you type. Empty input clears the results—no error. Non-numeric or negative amounts show a validation message.

Densities are approximate cooking estimates; packing, humidity, and brand vary. Volume reference: 1 US legal cup = 236.5882365 mL. Use Sample for 1 cup all-purpose flour → 125 g.

Examples

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour → 125 g
  • 100 g granulated sugar → 0.5 cup
  • 1 cup water → 236 g
  • 2 cups honey → 680 g

FAQ

Is my amount uploaded to a server?

No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser. Values are not sent to Every Tools.

Why does flour weigh less than water per cup?

Dry ingredients leave air in a measuring cup. Kitchen charts use typical scooped or packed masses, not pure substance density × volume.

Are these densities exact?

No. They are approximate cooking estimates. Packing, humidity, grind, and brand change the mass of a cup. Do not treat results as nutrition-label or lab values.

Which cup size do you use?

US customary cups. For volume context, 1 US legal cup = 236.5882365 mL. This tool converts cups ↔ grams by ingredient, not millilitres alone.
