Ingredient Weight Converter
Convert cooking ingredients between volume and weight. Select an ingredient to convert between grams, kilograms, ounces, pounds, teaspoons, tablespoons, cups, and millilitres accurately.
Conversions between volume and weight depend on the selected ingredient. A cup of flour weighs 120 g, but a cup of sugar weighs 200 g.
How to Use
Step 1: Select the ingredient you are converting. Each ingredient has a different density, so the same volume weighs differently.
Step 2: Enter the measurement value you want to convert.
Step 3: Choose the unit to convert from and the unit to convert to.
The result updates instantly. Use the swap button to reverse the conversion direction.
How It Works
Converting between volume (cups, tablespoons, millilitres) and weight (grams, ounces) requires knowing the density of the specific ingredient. A cup of flour weighs about 120 g, while a cup of sugar weighs about 200 g — the same volume, very different weights.
This converter uses standard cooking conversion tables based on grams per US cup (1 cup = 236.59 ml). All volume-to-weight conversions depend on the selected ingredient.
Common weights per US cup:
Flour 120 g · Sugar 200 g · Brown sugar 220 g · Butter 227 g · Honey 340 g · Rice 200 g · Salt 273 g · Cocoa powder 85 g · Milk 240 g · Water 236.59 g
