How Much Is 0.89 Cups of Cornstarch in Grams?
0.89 cups of cornstarch equals 113.92 g. Cornstarch has a density of 128g per cup (128g per cup), which means it's relatively light compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 0.89 cups of honey would be 302.6 g.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.89 cups of cornstarch
- 1 cup of cornstarch = 128g
- 0.89 × 128 = 113.92g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Humidity affects cornstarch weight. In humid conditions, flour absorbs moisture and weighs more per cup. Store it in an airtight container for consistent results.

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?
A gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1/1000 of a kilogram. It is the standard weight measurement for precise baking worldwide. Professional bakers prefer grams because they are more accurate than volume measurements.
