FAQ

How many grams is 1 cup of all-purpose flour?

1 cup of all-purpose flour weighs 120 g. So 2 cups weigh 240 g and half a cup weighs 60 g, using the standard 120 g per cup figure.

Why does the same cup weigh differently for each ingredient?

Because a cup measures volume, not weight. Dense ingredients like honey pack more mass into the same space: 1 cup of honey weighs 340 g, while 1 cup of cocoa powder weighs only 100 g.

Is weighing better than measuring cups for baking?

Yes, for baking it usually is. A cup of flour can vary by 20 g or more depending on how it is scooped, which is enough to change a cake. Grams remove that guesswork.
