Formula and Step-by-Step

cups × 243g/cup = grams
  1. Start with 2.05 cups of egg whites
  2. 1 cup of egg whites = 243g
  3. 2.05 × 243 = 498.15g

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

A whole large egg without shell weighs about 50g. When separating eggs for a recipe, weigh the whites and yolks individually for the most accurate results.

The US cup (236.588 ml) is slightly smaller than the metric cup used in Australia and some other countries (250 ml). When following recipes from different countries, check which cup standard is being used.

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 498.15 g, based on egg whites having a density of 243g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 243 (grams per cup for egg whites). For 2.05 cups: 2.05 × 243 = 498.15 g.
The most accurate way is to weigh egg whites on a kitchen scale, since individual eggs vary in size. If measuring by volume, pour into the measuring cup and read the level at eye height.
Weight-per-cup values vary because of differences in how the ingredient is measured (spooned vs scooped), grind size, moisture content, and settling during storage. Our values use standardized measurement methods from established culinary references.
Reverse the conversion: 498.15 g ÷ 243 = 2.05 cups. Or use the Grams to Cups converter.
