How Much Is 125.16 Grams of Cake Flour in Cups?
125.16 grams of cake flour equals 1.10 cups. Cake flour has a density of 114g per cup. Because grams measure weight and cups measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 125.16 grams of cake flour
- 1 cup of cake flour = 114g
- 125.16g ÷ 114g/cup = 1.10 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Understanding the Units
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.
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.
