This calculator is an essential tool for any British baker looking to achieve consistent results. It helps bridge the gap between recipes that use volume measurements (like cups and spoons) and the more accurate method of weighing ingredients in grams or ounces.
You may have noticed that a cup of flour weighs a different amount to a cup of sugar. This is because of density. Every ingredient has a unique density—its mass per unit of volume. Our calculator contains a database of densities for over thirty common baking ingredients to provide you with accurate conversions. Using weight ensures you use the exact same amount of an ingredient every time, which is critical for perfecting your bakes.
Pro Tip: How to Measure Flour
For the most consistent results when using cups, first fluff up the flour in its container. Then, spoon the flour into your measuring cup until it is overflowing, and finally, level it off with a straight edge. Do not scoop directly with the cup, as this compacts the flour and can lead to dry, dense baked goods.
It is important to remember that this tool is optimised for a UK kitchen. A standard British cup is 250ml, a tablespoon is 15ml, and a teaspoon is 5ml. These can differ from measurements in other regions, so using a tool localised for the UK is important for getting recipes right. Explore our Volume Converter, Weight Converter, or our dedicated Cups Calculator for quick cup-to-gram lookups.
