Cups to Grams Conversion Chart (Printable)

1 US cup is always 240 ml by volume — but grams depend on the ingredient, because flour packs differently than sugar. For baking, weigh ingredients; for everything else, these equivalents work. Print it (Ctrl/Cmd+P).

Tip: spoon, don't scoop

Scooping packs flour up to 30% heavier. Spoon flour into the cup and level it — or better, use the scale. Every MealMorrow recipe page has a US/metric toggle that does this math for you.
