Cups to Grams Chart
Every ingredient this site converts, on one printable page — grams per US cup, the source for each figure, and a note wherever a value was scaled from a smaller measure.
How to read this chart
Every row is one ingredient's weight in grams for one US customary cup (236.588 mL), filled the way the source chart specifies — spooned and levelled for dry ingredients. Find your ingredient, read across, and you have the number the converter uses. Ingredients with their own guide pages are linked from their names, and the notes column is honest about arithmetic: where a source listed a weight per tablespoon, half cup or quarter cup, the note says so and the cup figure is that value scaled up, never a fresh estimate.
The filter box narrows the table as you type — try "flour", "sugar" or "oil". Nothing is sent anywhere; the filtering happens in your browser like everything else on this site.

Frequently asked questions
Where do the numbers in this chart come from?
Sixty-eight of the sixty-nine weights come from the King Arthur Baking Ingredient Weight Chart. The exception is water, which uses the USDA's 237 g because King Arthur's 227 g is a rounded convention (8 ounces) rather than a measurement. Notes in the chart flag every figure the source listed at a smaller volume and that was scaled arithmetically to a cup.
Why isn't my favourite ingredient on the chart?
The chart only includes ingredients our sources publish a cup weight for. Brown rice (uncooked), lemon juice, vanilla extract, eggs and instant yeast were all checked and excluded because the sources list them only by the piece, by the cooked cup, or by the spoon — the full reasoning is on the About page's data sources & method section.
Can I print this chart?
Yes — use the print button above the table. The printed version drops the navigation, sidebar and this FAQ and keeps the full 69-row table with its sources and notes, sized for a kitchen wall or a recipe binder.
Are these weights for US cups only?
The chart is per US customary cup (236.588 mL), the cup the sources use. For metric (250 mL), US legal (240 mL) or UK imperial (284.131 mL) cups, use the converter pages, which scale every weight by the volume ratio.
