How Much Is 1.66 Cups of Self-Rising Flour in Grams?
1.66 cups of self-rising flour weighs 199.20 g. This is based on self-rising flour having a density of 120g per cup. Because cups measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 1.66 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1.66 cups of self-rising flour
- 1 cup of self-rising flour = 120g
- 1.66 × 120 = 199.2g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For the most consistent results, weigh self-rising flour on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements can vary by 20-30% depending on how the flour is scooped.

Understanding the Units
What is a Cup?
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?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
