Cups to grams — quick reference
Because a "cup" measures volume, the weight in grams depends entirely on the ingredient. Light, fluffy things like flour weigh far less per cup than dense ones like honey. Common US-cup weights:
| Ingredient | 1 cup | ½ cup |
|---|---|---|
| All-purpose flour | 125 g | 63 g |
| Granulated sugar | 200 g | 100 g |
| Brown sugar (packed) | 220 g | 110 g |
| Butter | 227 g | 113 g |
| Milk / water | 240 g | 120 g |
| Honey | 340 g | 170 g |
Volume conversions
1 US cup = 16 tablespoons = 48 teaspoons = 240 mL. 1 tablespoon = 3 teaspoons = 15 mL. These are US measures; a metric cup is 250 mL and an Australian tablespoon is 20 mL, so check your recipe's origin.
