Stop guessing how many grams are in a cup of flour. Cooking Conversions converts 1,500+ ingredients between cups, grams, ounces, ml, tablespoons, teaspoons, liters, kilograms, and pounds. Most measurement converters treat every cup the same. This one doesn't - a cup of flour, a cup of sugar, and a cup of chopped walnuts all weigh different amounts. Pick sliced, diced, whole, chopped, packed, or sifted when it matters. • Convert 1,500+ ingredients by weight and volume • Cups to grams, flour grams to cups, ounces to ml - metric to imperial, both directions • Ingredient forms that change the weight: sliced, diced, whole, chopped, packed, sifted • Fahrenheit ↔ Celsius for oven temperatures • Searchable conversion history • Favorites for ingredients you use often • Works fully offline - no account, no ads • Light and dark mode with 8 accent colors • English and Spanish Example: 1 cup all-purpose flour → 120 g. 1 cup granulated sugar → 200 g. Every conversion and feature is included with your App Store download. No subscriptions or in-app purchases.
