How the grams to cups conversion works
Cups = grams ÷ grams per cup. For 200 g of all-purpose flour at 125 g per cup, that gives 1.60 cups. The converter then turns it into cup and spoon measures: whole cups first, then the largest of ¾, ⅔, ½, ⅓ or ¼ cup that fits, then tablespoons to the nearest half. That gives 1½ cups + 1½ tbsp.
Every weight comes from a published source, listed with the method.
| Cup | ml | Used in |

| US legal cup | 240 | US nutrition labels |
| Metric cup | 250 | Australia, NZ, Canada and modern UK recipes |

Questions people ask
How do you convert grams to cups?
Divide the grams by the weight of 1 cup of that ingredient. A US cup of all-purpose flour weighs 125 g, so 200 g ÷ 125 = 1.60 cups, which you measure as 1½ cups + 1½ tbsp.
Is one cup always the same number of grams?
No. A cup is a volume, so its weight depends on the ingredient. 1 US cup holds 237 g of water, 200 g of granulated sugar and 125 g of all-purpose flour. The grams in a cup table lists all 46 ingredients.
Should I convert grams to ounces or cups?
Ounces, if you have a scale: grams to ounces is exact for every ingredient (100 g = 3.53 oz). Cups depend on the ingredient and on how you fill the cup, so use them when you have no scale.
