CALCULATOR GUIDE
How to use the Grams to Cups Converter
Convert grams to US cups using the selected ingredient density. Flour, sugar and butter cannot share one universal conversion.
Worked example
At 120 grams per US cup, 240 grams of all-purpose flour converts to about 2 cups.
Assumptions and limits
Brand, humidity, grinding and packing affect density. For baking, a scale and the recipe author’s weights are more repeatable.
Frequently asked questions
Is a cup the same everywhere?
No. This converter uses US customary cups; metric cup conventions differ.
Why do flour conversions differ?
Reference weights and packing methods vary. Use the recipe author’s stated weight when available.
