How It Works

The Grams to Cups Converter helps you convert weight measurements (grams) to volume measurements (cups) for common cooking ingredients. This tool is essential for baking, following international recipes, and converting between metric and imperial measurements. Different ingredients have different densities, so the converter accounts for this by providing conversions for flour, sugar, butter, and water. Simply select your ingredient and enter the grams, and the calculator shows the equivalent in cups.

Conversion Formula
Cups = Grams ÷ Density (grams per cup)

Divide the weight in grams by the ingredient's density (grams per cup) to get the volume in cups. Different ingredients have different densities: flour is approximately 125g per cup, sugar is 200g per cup, butter is 227g per cup, and water is 240g per cup.

Example Conversions
Input:250g flour
Output:2 cups

250 ÷ 125 = 2 cups

Input:200g sugar
Output:1 cup

200 ÷ 200 = 1 cup

Input:240g water
Output:1 cup

240 ÷ 240 = 1 cup
