How it is worked out

  1. A cup of all-purpose flour weighs about 120 g (1 cup = 120 g).
  2. So 1 cup is about 120 g.
  • Cups are turned into grams with what a cup of all-purpose flour weighs (1 cup = 120 g, from Ingredient weight chart, King Arthur Baking). How a cup is filled changes it, so weigh when it matters.
