Ingredient Weight Chart

For bakers working by weight, this chart lists how much one cup of common ingredients weighs in both grams and ounces — handy when a recipe gives volume but you would rather scale.

Ingredient Per cup (g) Per cup (oz)
All-purpose flour 120 4.2
Granulated sugar 200 7.1
Brown sugar (packed) 220 7.8
Butter 227 8.0
Water 237 8.4
Honey 340 12.0
Chocolate chips 170 6.0
Chopped nuts 120 4.2
Rolled oats 90 3.2
Uncooked rice 185 6.5
Grated cheese 100 3.5
Cocoa powder 85 3.0
Volume varies, weight does not. Packing, sifting, and humidity all change what a cup holds. Weighing gives the same result every time.
