What is Cooking?

A kitchen converter. Volume units convert directly, while weight conversions use per-ingredient densities (flour, sugar, butter, water, milk, honey…).

How it works

Volume↔weight conversions multiply by the selected ingredient's grams-per-cup density; pure volume conversions use standard US measures.

Examples

Grams to cups for flour

250 g of all-purpose flour is about 2 cups — but 250 g of sugar is only about 1.25 cups. The converter uses per-ingredient densities.

Common mistakes

Volume and weight aren't interchangeable

A cup of flour weighs far less than a cup of sugar. Always convert by ingredient, not by a single cup-to-gram factor.

Frequently asked questions

Which ingredients are included?

Flour, sugar, butter, rice, oats, liquids, and other common cooking staples, each with its own density.

How accurate are cup conversions?

Cup measurements vary with packing and scooping. Results are close for spooned-and-leveled ingredients; weigh when precision matters.
