Cooking Converter
Convert any cooking measurement instantly — cups to milliliters, tablespoons to teaspoons, ounces to grams, and more.
How It Works
Uses standard conversion ratios between all common cooking volume and weight units.
Formula
1 cup = 16 tbsp = 48 tsp = 237 ml = 8 fl oz
1 oz = 28.35g | 1 lb = 453.6g
Example
2 cups = 2 × 237 ml = 474 ml
When to Use This Calculator
Use when following international recipes, scaling recipes up or down, or converting between US and metric measurements.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Assuming all ingredients weigh the same per cup — 1 cup flour ≠ 1 cup sugar by weight.
- Confusing fluid ounces with weight ounces — fl oz is volume; oz is weight.
- UK pint (568 ml) vs US pint (473 ml) — significant in baking.
