Grams to Cups Converter

This grams to cups converter turns grams into cups for common ingredients. Pick an item, type the grams, and get cups at once. The math stays consistent and easy to read.

How It Works

The converter divides your grams by a fixed grams per cup value for each ingredient. It uses the United States cup, where water or milk weighs 240 grams per cup. Results show cups to two decimals for clear reading.

You also see a friendly hint for small amounts. The hint shows these fractions when cups fall in range:

• At least 0.75 cups shows about 3/4 cup
• At least 0.66 cups shows about 2/3 cup
• At least 0.50 cups shows about 1/2 cup
• At least 0.33 cups shows about 1/3 cup
• At least 0.25 cups shows about 1/4 cup
• Below 0.25 cups shows tablespoons as well

Tablespoons use the rule 1 cup equals 16 tablespoons. The result also shows the exact weight used for 1 cup of your chosen ingredient.

Notes for accuracy:

• Brown sugar means firmly packed in the cup
• Flour uses a leveled cup
• Cocoa powder refers to unsweetened cocoa
• Oil, honey, and salt use standard kitchen weights
