How to Measure Flour in Cups

The way you scoop flour makes a huge difference. A cup of flour measured with the spoon-and-level method weighs about 120 grams. The same cup scooped directly from the bag can weigh 150 grams — that's 25% more flour, enough to make your baked goods dense and dry.

Use the calculator above to convert any amount of flour from cups to grams for precise baking results.

Pro tip: Fluff the flour in the bag first, spoon it into the cup, then level the top with a straight edge. This gives the most consistent 120g result.
