Cups to grams, by ingredient
A cup of flour does not weigh the same as a cup of sugar. Choose a listed ingredient, enter a volume, and get a gram estimate based on a published kitchen weight chart. Brand, packing, sifting, and preparation change the result, so treat each value as a reference and weigh ingredients when precision matters.

How it works
- 01
Choose the ingredient and the preparation that match your recipe; these are ingredient-specific reference weights, not a universal volume-to-weight rule.
- 02
The calculator converts the entered amount to US cups, then multiplies by the published grams-per-cup equivalent. Smaller chart measures are scaled proportionally to a cup.
- 03
The displayed gram result is rounded to the nearest whole gram. For baking precision, weigh the ingredient and follow your recipe's measuring method.
