Frequently asked questions
How many grams are in a cup of flour?
About 125 g of all-purpose flour per US cup, spooned and levelled. Packing the cup can push it to 150 g or more, which is why weighing is more accurate for baking.
Why isn't there one cups-to-grams number?
Cups measure volume and grams measure weight, so the answer depends on how dense the ingredient is. A cup of sugar (≈200 g) weighs more than a cup of flour (≈125 g).
Are these US cups?
Yes — 1 US cup = 236.6 ml. The gram values are typical averages; for precision in baking, a kitchen scale beats any cup measure.
