How to Use the Cooking Converter

Pick the tab that matches your task. Volume converts liquids and cup measures (ml, litres, teaspoons, tablespoons, cups, pints). Weight converts grams, kilograms, ounces and pounds. Temperature converts between °C, °F and gas mark for your oven. Spoons & Cups shows a ready-made equivalence chart, and Ingredient Converter turns a volume into a weight (or back) using the real density of the ingredient you choose.

Enter the amount, choose the unit you have and the unit you want, then click Convert. Results are rounded to a precision that makes sense in the kitchen.

Why a Cup of Flour Doesn't Weigh the Same as a Cup of Sugar

American recipes usually measure dry ingredients by volume (cups and spoons), while most of the world weighs them in grams. The catch is that the same volume weighs very different amounts depending on the ingredient: a 240 ml cup holds about 120–125 g of all-purpose flour, roughly 200 g of white sugar and around 340 g of honey. Converting a cup to grams as if it were water (240 g) would throw a recipe off badly.

That's why the Ingredient Converter uses a specific density for each product. For baking, where ratios matter, weighing is still the most reliable method — a kitchen scale is far more consistent than a cup that may be packed loosely or tightly.

Weight (g) = Volume (ml) × Ingredient density (g/ml)

Frequently Asked Questions

One US cup (240 ml) of all-purpose flour weighs about 120–125 g, depending on how it is filled. Packed flour can exceed 140 g.
1 tablespoon = 15 ml and 1 teaspoon = 5 ml. In Australia a tablespoon is 20 ml, so check the recipe's origin.
180 °C × 9/5 + 32 = 356 °F, which recipes round to 350 °F. It is the standard temperature for most cakes (gas mark 4).
About 4.23 US cups (240 ml each), or exactly 4 metric cups (250 ml each).
A cup of white sugar weighs about 200 g, a cup of packed brown sugar about 220 g, and a cup of powdered sugar about 120 g.
Gas mark is the oven scale used on UK gas cookers. Gas mark 4 ≈ 180 °C (350 °F); each step above that adds roughly 14 °C (25 °F). Exact values vary slightly between manufacturers.
