How the conversion works
Volume and weight can only be converted with the ingredient’s density. Grams = tablespoons × (grams per cup ÷ 16), because a US cup holds 16 tablespoons. Example: 2 tbsp butter = 2 × 227 ÷ 16 ≈ 28.4 g. The densities here are typical values used in baking references for US customary cups (236.6 mL); flour ranges from about 120 to 130 g per cup depending on technique. Choose “Custom density” to use the figure from your recipe or package.
