Why isn't 1 cup always the same in grams?

Different ingredients have different densities. A cup of flour weighs about 125 g, but a cup of honey weighs 340 g.

Is this US or UK cups?

We use the US cup standard (240 ml), which is the most common in modern recipes.

Should I sift flour first?

For accuracy, spoon flour into the cup and level it off — packing it down can add 20–30% more weight.

How it works

Cup-to-gram conversions depend on the ingredient. We multiply your cup amount by a standard density value (US cup = 240 ml) to give you an accurate weight in grams.

For best baking results, weigh dry ingredients on a scale — small differences in cup measurement can make a big difference in the final result.
