Volume converts perfectly between these units. But cups of a dry ingredient like flour do not weigh a fixed number of grams — for that, use the cups to grams converter.
FAQ
How many teaspoons in a tablespoon?
3 teaspoons make 1 tablespoon — the single most useful kitchen conversion to memorise.
Is a US cup the same as a metric cup?
No. A US cup is ~237 ml; a metric cup (AU/NZ) is 250 ml. This tool uses US customary units.
Can I convert millilitres to grams here?
Only for water, where 1 ml ≈ 1 g. Other ingredients have different densities — use the cups to grams tool for those.
