Ingredient Converter

The conversion depends on the type of flour. All-purpose flour is about 125g per cup, bread flour is about 130g per cup, and whole wheat flour is about 120g per cup. Our ingredient converter uses accurate density values for each flour type.

Different ingredients have different densities. 100g of flour takes up much more space than 100g of honey. Flour is light and airy while honey is dense. That's why you need ingredient-specific conversions for accurate baking.

For all-purpose flour, 200 grams equals approximately 3.8 deciliters (about 1.6 cups). This varies by flour type - bread flour is slightly denser, so 200g would be about 3.6 dl.

Common densities: All-purpose flour is about 0.53 g/ml, white sugar is 0.85 g/ml, brown sugar (packed) is 0.93 g/ml, butter is 0.96 g/ml, honey is 1.42 g/ml, and water is exactly 1.0 g/ml. Our converter handles all these calculations automatically.

Yes, measuring by weight is more accurate and consistent. A cup of flour can vary by 20-30% depending on how it's scooped. Professional bakers always use weight measurements. Our converter helps you convert recipes between weight and volume.
