Formula and Step-by-Step

cups × 80g/cup = grams
  1. Start with 0.35 cups of shredded coconut
  2. 1 cup of shredded coconut = 80g
  3. 0.35 × 80 = 28g

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

Measuring Tip

Toast shredded coconut before adding to recipes for richer flavor. Toasting does not significantly change the weight.

Understanding the Units

A cup is a US customary unit of volume equal to 236.588 milliliters or 8 fluid ounces. It is the most common volume measurement in American recipes. One cup can be divided into 16 tablespoons or 48 teaspoons.

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 28.00 g, based on shredded coconut having a density of 80g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 80 (grams per cup for shredded coconut). For 0.35 cups: 0.35 × 80 = 28.00 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh shredded coconut on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, fill the measuring cup loosely and level off without pressing down. Whole and chopped pieces give different weights per measuring cup.
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: 28.00 g ÷ 80 = 0.35 cups. Or use the Grams to Cups converter.
