Do you know how many grams are in a cup? Or how many cups are in a gram?

Do you know how many grams are in a cup?

Or how many cups are in a gram?

You may think you do, until the type of flour changes or the type of sugar switches and suddenly the conversion of cups to grams is completely different!

The amount of times I’ve searched for a recipe, found one that’s fab and got excited, only to be disappointed when the ingredients were in cups. The only option after that is a) go through endless websites trying to find out all the gram equivalents for each ingredient, or b) the much easier and most popular option… abandon it.

I scoured the web to find all the converted measurements I could find for cups to grams for the most common baking ingredients. If there are any that I’ve missed that you use frequently, pop us a comment and I’ll try to get that added 🙂

Hope it helps! Happy baking!
