Frequently Asked Baking Questions
Why do different ingredients have different gram weights per cup?
Volume measures space, while weight measures mass. Ingredients like powdered sugar or cocoa powder have more air gaps between particles than heavy items like honey or granulated sugar, resulting in different gram weights per standard cup.
How do I correctly measure flour using volume cups?
Flour packs down easily when scooped directly from a bag. To prevent heavy bakes, aerate your flour with a fork, spoon it lightly into your measuring cup until overflowing, and level it off flat with the back of a knife.
Are all measuring cups standardized globally?
Not quite! An American standard cup equals 236.6 ml, while metric cups used in Commonwealth countries equal 250 ml. GramWise uses standard U.S. recipe volumes (236.58 ml per cup).
