Overview

The Baking Conversion Calculator accurately converts between cups, grams, ounces, tablespoons, teaspoons, and other baking measurements. It accounts for ingredient-specific densities — since a cup of flour weighs differently than a cup of sugar — to provide precise conversions. Especially useful when adapting recipes from different countries with different measurement systems.

Formula

Conversions depend on each ingredient's density. Examples: 1 cup flour = ~125g, 1 cup sugar = ~200g, 1 cup butter = ~227g. Standard measures: 1 tablespoon = 15ml, 1 teaspoon = 5ml, 1 US cup = 240ml.

How to Use

1. 1Select the ingredient you want to convert (flour, sugar, butter, etc.).
2. 2Enter the original unit and quantity.
3. 3Choose the target unit for conversion.
4. 4View the accurately converted quantity.

Tips

• ✔For baking accuracy, always prefer weight (grams) over volume (cups) measurements.
• ✔Note that US cups (240ml) differ from Japanese cups (200ml) and Australian tablespoons (20ml vs 15ml).
• ✔1 stick of butter = 113g = 1/2 cup, a common measurement in American recipes.
• ✔Sifted flour takes up more volume than unsifted, so weight-based measurement avoids this inconsistency.
