APPROXIMATE WEIGHT125g

1 cup of plain flour. Ingredient density, packing and brand can change the exact weight.

HOW TO USE IT

A quick answer, with enough context to use it well.

A cup is a volume measurement, so the gram weight changes with the ingredient. Flour, sugar and butter do not weigh the same cup-for-cup. Choose the ingredient first, then convert the amount you actually need.

  1. Choose the ingredient you are measuring.
  2. Enter the number of cups, including decimals such as 0.5 or 1.5.
  3. Use the approximate gram result and weigh it where accuracy matters.

Useful examples

1 cup plain flour ≈ 125g

1 cup granulated sugar ≈ 200g

1 cup butter ≈ 227g

1 cup rolled oats ≈ 90g

COMMON QUESTIONS

About cups → grams converter

Is one cup always the same number of grams?

No. Cups measure volume while grams measure weight, so the conversion depends on the ingredient.

How many grams is one cup of flour?

A practical estimate for plain flour is about 125g per cup. Scooping and packing can change the real weight.

Should I weigh ingredients for baking?

When precision matters, weighing ingredients in grams is usually more repeatable than measuring by cups.
