Cups to Grams Chart
What one cup of each common baking ingredient weighs, from the King Arthur Baking chart. Flour is 120 g and honey is 336 g, so there is no answer to "how many grams in a cup" that does not name the ingredient.
Source data and formula checked · How we check
Cups to Grams Chart reads converted straight off ingredient, for 60 values from agave to panko. Every row is computed from the same formula the calculator uses, not measured or copied from another table, so a value between two rows can be worked out the same way. The formula is the one published by King Arthur Baking.
A spooned and levelled cup. Scooping flour straight from the bag adds roughly a quarter to a third, which is more than the difference between any two charts.

Questions people actually ask
- How do I read the Cups to Grams Chart?
- Find your ingredient in the first column and read across. At agave the converted is 336; at panko it is 50. The table runs from agave to panko in 60 rows.
- What if my ingredient is outside the table?
- The chart covers agave to panko, which is the range people actually look up. Anything above or below goes into the calculator, which takes any figure and shows each step of the working rather than only the result. Open the grams to cups converter.
- Where do these numbers come from?
- Every row is computed at build time from the formula published by King Arthur Baking, by the same code behind the calculator — not transcribed from another table, which is how a rounding error in one chart ends up in twenty.
Need a different number?
The chart covers the common values. For anything between the rows, the grams to cups converter takes any figure and shows the working.
