Tailored for American kitchens, this tool ensures your recipes turn out perfectly every time.

How It Works

The converter uses standard weight and volume conversions for common ingredients. For example:

• All-Purpose Flour: 1 cup = 120 grams = 4.23 oz = 240 ml
• Granulated Sugar: 1 cup = 200 grams = 7.05 oz = 240 ml
• Butter: 1 cup = 227 grams = 8 oz = 240 ml
• Milk/Water: 1 cup = 240 grams = 8.45 oz = 240 ml
• Tablespoons/Teaspoons: 1 tbsp = 15 ml, 1 tsp = 5 ml

Select your ingredient, enter the amount, choose the “from” and “to” units, and get instant conversion results. The tool accounts for ingredient density for accurate conversions.
