Converting between grams and cups is one of the most common challenges in baking, especially when following recipes from different countries. European recipes typically use grams (a weight measurement), while American recipes use cups (a volume measurement). The problem is that a cup of flour does not weigh the same as a cup of sugar, because they have different densities. This converter uses standard ingredient densities to provide accurate conversions for the most common baking ingredients. For the best results, always use a kitchen scale for weight measurements, as volume measurements can vary significantly depending on how the ingredient is scooped.

• !Using the same grams-per-cup value for all ingredients -- each ingredient has a different density.
• !Scooping flour directly from the bag, which packs it and adds 15-25% more than intended.
• !Confusing weight ounces with fluid ounces -- they measure different things.
• !Not accounting for packing when measuring brown sugar.
