Understanding the Units

What is a Cup?

In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.

What is a Gram?

Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 640.71 g, based on cheddar cheese (shredded) having a density of 113g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 113 (grams per cup for cheddar cheese (shredded)). For 5.67 cups: 5.67 × 113 = 640.71 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh cheddar cheese (shredded) on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring cup and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 640.71 g ÷ 113 = 5.67 cups. Or use the Grams to Cups converter.
