Cups to Gram conversion (Flour-Sugar-Butter)

May 20, 2014 by PadhuSankar 15 Comments

Frequently I get questions on how much gram is 1 cup of  flour or sugar especially when it comes to baking. Measurements are very important in baking. It is really difficult to write both the measurements (cups and grams) every time. So I decided on a separate post hoping it will be useful for everyone. 

Kitchen scale

1#All purpose flour

Cup measurements to grams

1/8 cup=15 grams

1/4 cup=30.25 grams

1/3 cup=40 grams

1/2 cup=62.5 grams

3/4 cup=90 grams

1 cup= 125 grams

2#Butter

1 stick butter – 8 tbsp

Cups to Grams

1/8 cup=30 grams

1/4 cup=55 grams

1/3 cup=75 grams

1/2 cup=115 grams

2/3 cup=150 grams

3/4 cup=170 grams

1 cup=225 grams

3#White granulated Sugar-Dark Brown Sugar

 2 Tbsp= 25 g

 1/4 cup = 50 g

 1/3 cup = 67 g

 1/2 cup = 100 g

 2/3 cup = 134 g

 3/4 cup = 150 g

 1 cup = 200 grams

Check out the Standard measuring cups and spoons I use for all my recipes.

      1 cup is 200 ml only but differs depending on the ingredients measured. 1 cup all purpose flour is 125 grams where as 1 cup sugar is 200 grams.

      You can cut the butter taken from the refrigerator and measure it. Not melted butter.
